    Why do our politicians not have the cojones to do something about these death traps and nuisances?

    Sniveling cowardice?

    We tried them, they are a disaster. Ban them now.

    Stop assuming, I pray this young man pull through in The name of Jesus so he can say what really happen to him that morning.
    The police should have done a stop and search on damage vehicles in that area.
    It sure looks like a hit and run to me.

    Majority of these accidents are caused by careless drivers, who doesn't care about these scooter riders. There is enough space for both vehicles but they accept them
