The person on the scooter is in a much more unstable position than a
person walking or standing. OTOH the crafty buggers probably feel the
resistance and abandon within a shake of a lamb's tail.

The scooter's 2 up and gyrostabilized--you've got anywhere from
400-1000
pounds of mass going for you depending on the value of "scooter".

Sure it is, but the passenger grabbing the bag is not attached to the
scooter except by a small amount of friction of his bum on vinyl seat and
feet on small rubber pegs.

Do go down to your neighborhood Suzuki dealer and examine a Burgman.
The grabber is attached to the scooter by feet on floorboards, not pegs,
a backrest, and an arm around the driver, who is similarly attached and
also has both hands on the bars.

Sorry, I didn't realise they all rode Burgmans.
