This is so sad😢 I pray for a full fast recovery
Shame he lived
What about cars?
Sorry it’s the scooter company’s fault. I hope they get sued ❤❤❤
Yes, the last thing you have to learn is that nobody’s looking out for you. You have to do all the stuff or die.
Seriously, every single person I've seen that looks 25 or younger and rides an e-bike, rides them recklessly. It's not an e-bike thing, it's a generational thing. Gen Z'rs just do whatever they want they don't care about anything.
The reason there are more incidences is because there are more e scooters/bikes etc.
E-bikes and bicycles need to be off the road!
Just get rid of these scooters. They are a menace. People will never use them responsibility for the most part.
Dope, societal breakdown, complete lawlessness and advances in "affordable" e-motion devices are to blame. I hope the surviving mother gets a layer and sues everybody.
Unfortunately the all too common FAFO
At least he was of legal age and riding solo which isn’t usually the case.
The scooter isn’t the problem it’s the driver
He crossed against the signal? What? You supposed to wait for a green signal! Did he get confused! We sure do hope he's okay! But maybe they should read the motor vehicle book and learn what the red signal means stop in the green signal means go.
Glad the mother is aware her son could have avoided all this is he was paying attention. She's sending out a PSA, not casting blame.
And all of us who were 90's kids are thinking "We were doing way crazier things on non-electric bicycles"
Some Lime bike and scooter riders think that sidewalks are their personal speedways to play chicken with pedestrians. These games will only result in more broken limbs but possibly result in deaths. Between these fools and the screaming drug zombies, city leaders wonder why we might not feel safe? Does the mayor and city council ever walk Seattle streets? They need to.
They must have a motorcycle endorsment ……………………………………………………………………..
I hope the driver gets his car repaired by this reckless rider
E bikes should be required to carry insurance and follow traffic laws. We were hit last year by an E bike driver not following traffic laws. Unfortunately we were blamed, and now our insurance rates are higher. People should at least need to get a motorcycle endorsement if they’re going to ride a motorized bike
All the warnings in the world won't change the scooter riders' bad habits and illegal driving
Too bad people are so oblivious, and think themselves are the exceptions.
Blame the scooter when you don't wear a helmet, and don't pay attention to traffic lights and laws, are you f'ing serious! This was personal stupidity not the scooter. Why do you think that everyone else has to watch over you and keep you safe when you don't care about your own life or those around you. Accept the fact that you were injured as a result of you own dumb ass.
scooter riders are the problem! You can enjoy something without dying people!
So sue the city's limebike program
