The last victim was Diane Vega, who was on the sidewalk waiting for a light to change when someone ran a red light and slammed another car then rammed her into a brick wall.

Did not see that on there, read most of the replies until they went into rant mode.

My wife's scooter in now fixed, having had to lay it down for some 9000 yr old lady who just didn't see her ???. The scooter metallic RED that shines like no tomorrow and has all the bells and whistles plus extra lights on it. Nice BIG 150cc. We carry full coverage on all 3 bikes (including Amy's e-bike) plus DOT approved Helmets from HD. Her's paid for itself in the blink of an eye.

Cost the lady $400.00 to fix the 150cc. $250.00 for new helmet.
I requested they leave the scratches on the side to show others what can happen.
IMO that if they're selling these to known DUI's; the offender's should carry full coverage. But that's me.
I'll still ride, much too nice not too, plus 88mpg is hard to beat.
I figure in a year's time the newer 3-wheelers will be down to a price I want to pay. Can't justify 3Gs when the 150cc is running so nice.
