Brian here, so I'm having a great day, got paid, paid some bills, gettin stuff done, its super nice out. I'm sitting waiting to turn left onto my road so i could go home and have a tall glass of that new green tea ginger ale that canada dry makes. I hear a quick tire screech VREEEE! CRUNCH! I JUST GOT RAMMED! The scoot tries shooting out between my legs like a water rocket, I did my best to keep balance(which was hard, because I'm now sitting on the luggage rack) finally I could no longer keep control and and the scoot tips over and i go spilling out on to the road like a loose orange. I get up,im freaking out because i think my scooter is totally crunched,I pick it up, NOT A SCRATCH! The plastic rear fender is crumpled(but i was able to kinda pop it back into shape) and the license plate flew off. I feel okay, the 70+ yr old lady tries saying i didnt have my turn signal on, but Paul (my new witness friend) alerts her to look at my bike and the turn signal thats STILL ON! She's near heart attack and i saw minimal damage so we exchanged numbers and i thought a miracle happened. Well, i took a closer look and i need a new taillight and fender and maybe some more crap, the whole back light unit is real wobbly. FUCK! and my heel is bruised and have a stiff neck, its official when you get in an accident you get stiff neck. never ends. I'm gonna call her tomorrow and demand money or im takin this to GEICO!
be careful,folks!

That sucks. You try your best to be safe, but there's really nothing you can do about prescription-addled old codgers.
I'm glad you got away with minimal injury/scoot damage.
Glad your okay, Brian!
Hope you can get your scooter fixed asap and that the old biddie will pick up the bill!
