Scooter Accident

Much of what can be said about motorcycle accidents also applies to scooter accidents. Motorists tend to overlook scooters, even when riders are operating them perfectly legally on roads. Injuries are often severe because riders do not have the protection of a car body enclosing them. Rather, their bodies come in direct contact with vehicles and/or the pavement.

A scooter accident case has many similarities with a motorcycle accident case, but with a smaller vehicle. For example, people on scooters may lack sufficient insurance to cover costs of a serious accident. Insurance claims adjusters, judges and juries tend to assign blame to scooter riders even when a motorist was negligent.
