    I was going to post the technically-correct meme, since it is the best kind of correct, but now I’m not sure. In my mid-US dialect of English, we call people on e-scooters, motorcycles, and bicycles “riders.” For heavy machinery, it seems context-dependent, but when it’s traveling (slowly) on a public road like a vehicle, it really, really irritates people, so that fits.
