In Dallas (and other southern cities, Atlanta, Houston, Phoenix etc) your evening commute might involve 20 minutes of walking in 100F/37C which is rather unpleasant. You are drenched in sweat if you're wearing a button down shirt and slacks. I put up with this on a bicycle in my mid-20s but now in later years I would rather just call an uber than be totally miserable.

In July-August-September it can be over 90F/32C in the morning commute, with 90%+ humidity.

Breezing along in 100F on a scooter at top speed you might still sweat a little bit from the sun, but not much.
