Sorry have not read all the posts but as for these scooters i have quite a few stories.
1. A drunken man was driving it up a busyish road by where i live and fell off it drunkenly tried to get back on it and fell off numerous times till he did get on drive badly for a few meters and run into someone. I was with my mom at the time and our way back we passed same spot as its our route home and he was arrested and an ambulance was there for the woman he hit.
2. One pub by me always when i pass has 1 sat outside and has to be left there over night because the man/woman is drunk. At least he/she didnt drive it home (i am assuming)
3. Saturday morning me and hubby were taking our girls to dance class and we saw a boy no older 11 riding one stupidly towards the gutter as if he was going to ram into on coming traffic, now if he would of got hit it would of been his fault and you have to feel sorry for the driver. I know it wasnt his scooter as he was giving someone a lift on it laughing aiming at traffic!
Thats just a few stories i have and i think they say enough :lol:
