Before you mentioned his size I thought it may have actually been Mario himself. :laugh:
Keep reading the paper and watching the news. You'll probably be finding an account of him in a police accident report soon.

You'll probably be finding an account of him in a police accident report soon. We have had 6 killed on scooters and scooter related accidents in 3 months here. One idiot was on the freeway here on a 150cc and got hit by a truck. I live in the Raleigh NC Triangle area and on the 40, 95 and the 440 beltway, people fly. Hell they fly in town. I wouldnt get out there on 440 on anything less than a 250. Idiots like this give the rest of us a bad name. I see more and more scooters every week. These dumbasses are what is going to bring tighter regulations down on all of us. I hope gy6lover makes it to florida alive. www.wral.com/traffic/story/10140568/

I agree. The longer we can sort of operate under the radar the better off we are.

Its people like this who think scooters are toys and they can do as they please and give the rest of us a bad name. I hope his Benelli blows up. Scooters are toys.......really fun ones! ........but a jackass is a jackass.

Scooters are toys.......really fun ones! ........but a jackass is a jackass. Scooters are motor vehicles that can get you and other people killed, and thus bring tighter regulations down on the rest of us. Please be respectful if not for your own ass but for the rest of us and the freedom for all of us to ride, including yourself.

The guy was probably used to a 4T and hopped on a 2T and got all power crazed. Sorry, had to. It's in my job description. I also agree that scooters are not toys. If you fail to respect them, you'll get hurt eventually.

I've only been riding since early summer and I too have had my close calls where idiot cars and mostly pick-up trucks and mini vans thinks its fun to speed way up to pass on the right side going from a two lane rd down to a 1 way rd.
I drive very offensively and have so far avoid an accidents. I too think everyone who doesnt own a scooter scoffs at us and Im learning to really lay on the horn!! And because Im nicer than idiots with this attitude, when my scooter slows to almost a crawl going up a hill (20-25) I drive way over to the right as safely close to the curb as I can and angerly watch them fly past me and some even look at me and laugh!!!! GGGGRRRRR
