Is an e scooter like a smaller vespa, or is it one of those things you stand on like the kids used to have.

They are akin to powered skateboards with a handle. I can’t imagine using one of these in traffic.

If you mean the Razor scooters from years ago, like that with a motor and battery, and rentable on city streets with a smartphone app. You find them sitting out on the street in dense parts of major cities.

The bottom line is that it looks fun, can be a practical way to get around short distances, but can also be quite dangerous. It’s easy to screw up and put yourself in a world of hurt.
