I fully agree with what you are saying here, I ride my scooter to work every day and have had many near misses. However I've found that the heightened awareness you need as a small road user carries over to other driving. I take a lot more notice of what is going on around me on the road when I'm driving my car because A) I know how hard it is to spot cyclists/scooters/motorbikes, and B) I have to work so hard at guessing what other people are doing when I'm on my scooter that I've gotten very good at predicting when someone is going to do something stupid.
