Not Enough Metal Between You And The Rest of Traffic

Two people riding a scooter were injuured in a hit-and-run, and I swear I was thinking about this very thing the other day when I was driving through scooter-filled Santa Monica and saw people on scooters in bike lanes and crossing streets and getting very close to being hit by cars, especially when the scooter riders weren't paying attention to their surroundings. If you get hit on a scooter, you're going to be badly hurt, obviously. And pedestrians have to dodge scooter riders (and discarded scooters) on the sidewalks. Get the feeling they haven't really worked out the whole inundate-the-cities-with-scooters thing? Wait, here you go, another article citing a vast increase in scooter-related injuries. Be careful out there. (KTLA/Los Angeles)
