    Sounds like he wasn’t wearing a helmet.

    The more I see these things the more I think that full face helmets should be mandatory

    It’s sad to hear despite he was probably reckless and not being safe. I hope scooters don’t get a bad wrap from this. Cars don’t get a “it’s too dangerous” sentiment despite all the drunk driving that still occurs. At least a scooter was less likely to have hurt other innocent people.
