This one is close to home!


One Hospitalized in Scooter Crash

7/13/2007 11pm report



ST. AUGUSTINE, FL -- A young driver is in critical condition from a crash on his scooter. Police say the scooter slammed into a truck and actually slid underneath it.

It happened right in front of the Alligator Farm in Saint Augustine Friday night. Officers think the truck driver didn't see the scooter and pulled right in front of it.

That is one bad piece of road to get whacked on, had the same happen in 2001, I walked away from that one. I find that riding right at dark is the most dangerous time. I have had more near misses at that time than any other park of the day.

I second the Heads Up, thanks Swamp.
