I too hope that he is ok, but I don't think he needs to be driving a scooter anymore (or maybe driving in general). At 80 years old and crashing into a parked vehicle, I think it may be an age/attention/reflex/vision related accident. Scooter looks to be in useable condition still, so I doubt that it was a bad crash, but at 80 years old you never know. Hope he's ok.

i hope that he's ok too. this could happen to anyone. couple of years ago i'm in my cage, a little after 8 in am, stopped behind several cars at a stop light for several minutes (still red), when all of a sudden my cars bumps forward......look in rearview mirror to see that i got rearended by a harley of all things, i half expected to see him just go sideways and down. boy it was funny then and funny now, my cage is red toy camry, so i'm very visible and all my lights were working. so it can happen to anyone.

A friend of a friend knows of the guy that crashed the scoot. The chrome mirror you see in the pic is from a previous crash. Apparantly he is known for not driving to well around the area. Regardless, I hope he's alright... but yeah, sounds like he may wanna call it quits on the scooter.
