If you meet a bike (trike) in your car or cart coming at you in a neighborhood does it bug you?
Where going to go when there curb? IMO those bikes are dangerous cause you just can’t jump off out of road. You’re stuck in seat at bumper level. Not mention there twice as hard to see especially in jacked up trucks and SUV.
