Cycling and walking are typical forms of local locomotion. especially common in the urban environment. During the last five years, portable electric scooters were developed and quicldy gained popularity and, at the same time, generated previously unknown challenges associated with safety [1]. Their users compete with pedestrians and cyclists to occupy the same space [2], which may create conflicts and cause accidents. The balance between the safety of pedestrians and ES riders is still being sought [3], while the legislation process lags behind the rapid emergence and popularity of this new micromobility transportation mode [ 4, 5]. Tue aim of this research was a comparison of visual gaze behaviour of cyclists, electric scooter users, and pedestrians passing the same route stretch - a broad busy underpass in city centre. Visual interaction of the test participants with other road users was analysed to understand threats and risks for each of these modes of transport during selection of the path; speeds and behaviour during manoeuvres were also assessed. Differences in perception. depending on the utilized mode of transport, should bring better understanding of their specific needs and may support appropriate regulation. This research work could be considered as an extension of previous study when, in the similar way, behaviours of road-users utilizing a shared road were analysed [ 6]. [From: Introduction]
