Motor Scooter injury
Whilst surfing the web looking for topics to write about I read an article where the rider of a motor scooter was knocked of his bike by a distracted driver in Fort Lauderdale. Reports claim that the driver of the car was distracted and swerved into the path of the scooter. Luckily for the rider of the scooter he had enough space where he was able to swerve away but hit the curb of the pavement and was thrown from his scooter. The driver of the car stopped to make sure that the rider was not seriously injured, paramedics was still called to the scene for the rider of the scooter, he was eventually released but was told to follow up with his Doctor.
Riders should practice always be aware of their surroundings at all times, keep an eye out for distracted drivers; drivers who may be texting whilst driving or talking on their cell phones and generally not paying attention. Daily on the road we have drivers who do not respect other users of the road whether it’s a cyclist, a pedestrian or another driver which sometimes can lead to unnecessary personal injury to an innocent traveler. Cyclists whether they are riding a bicycle or a motor cycle should always wear protective gear to protect themselves on the road.
