Mobility scooters
I am beginning to think there should be a driving test for these things!
I know they are a great help to the ill and the elderly and hey we are all for that.
but surely some one has to check they have a bit of road sense or even a little common sense before letting them loose.
Over the years i have seen folks do some friggin dumb things on these contraptions
Ranging from driving up the Lisburn Rd against the flow of traffic at rush hour holding everyone up.
(which like a child i found funny because i wasn't one of them)
To the granny in Tesco's who was nearly pulling handbrake turns in hers!
(while mowing down small children)
That said the guy in the clip below takes the biscuit.
We have elderly ALL OVER our small town riding (driving?) those damn things.
ReplyDeleteThey drive 'em across busy intersections, on the sides of the roads, everywhere EXCEPT the sidewalks they belong on.
Somebody's gonna get RUN OVER !
