Why do Scooter Accident happen?

Why do Scooter Accident happen?

Scooter riders pose huge risks to cars, pedestrians and themselves.

Disobeying traffic laws, are creating hazards for pedestrians or weaving in and out of traffic, vehicles and pedestrians can't always predict scooter behavior. 

Knowing how to avoid a scooter accident is the key to staying safe.

The irresponsability of those teenagers on the roads using this devices are very worry those days, not only in USA, in other countries too, they do not measure the danger driving this new scooters with any protection, no lights no helmet nothing.

And also no respect the speed limit and rules.

Few days ago, my Dash Camera on my car captured this irresponsible kid, his scooter passed me on the street overspeeding the limit signs 40 m.p.h on that road above that limit.

I didn't see any lights on the back of his scooter, only a white light in front of his scooter and without any protection as i mentioned before.

So, but the worst part was the infraction, the kid he did not using precautions approaching the intersection and run the red light and crossed it at high speed....putting the other drivers and pedestrians in danger.

My safety recomendations to all people who driving on the streets, should be very careful when you see scooters on the roads.

Currently, you see many scooters on the streets operated by young people who believe nothing can happen to them.

Safety is everyone's commitment, parents talk with your kids to teach that riding a scooter must respect also the rules on any street.

So, always try to avoid a major incident or accident also when you are in control of your car, never run a red light. Brake....Stop for your safety and the other people who are on the roads of any city, when the light turn green to read STOP.

Making the roads all drivers safe.
