*Vultures Knob>>>Mobility Scooter

Have you ever been run over by one of these old peeps on their "Mobility Scooter" contraption?


I was, and the old twit said "Sorry sonny I didn't see you", remarkable as I'd been standing on the pavement having a chat with a friend for about five minutes!

I swear, where I live they have started "Cruising" the pavements in to use Hells Angel terminoligy "Chapters"!LOL

yes lol. little buggers some of 'em i tell ya! saw an old lady do a wheelie once. well impressed i was!

i think i`ve still got one stuck to my wheel rim

haha. yeah. in the store the other day and this little old lady nearly backed up over us. i guess the beeper thing when you back up wasn't working bc i didn't hear her backing up.

she didn't even notice. good thing we were quick on our feet.

I never have, no.

no, but i saw a lady flip out of one.

hee hee no, they'd bend their bumper! I want one of those when I'm grey in the trunk tho', they build up a respectable speed in the supermarket.

No but ive had to dodge one on the pavement .And got a look like i was in the wrong.

No, but have you seen the one commercial where they are all choreographed and they are all spinning together to some goofy song? Those poor old peeps. I hope they got paid mad cash for that. It made my day tho so that's helpful.

yes. the silly old man didnt bother to look. he just reversed over my foot in smiths. nearly bloody killed me. but thats ok cos hes old im told. huh?. why is it ok for them to belt around on the pavements and inside shops, when an innocent cyclist gets an ear bashing from everyone.

Don't get me started on these things =/

I get angry when they use them on the roads too. They have no road tax, no MoT, no number plate (in case of hit and run - lol =D), - yet they trundle down the road at 2.3 mph and when you gesture to them as you manage to get past, they have the nerve to wave their walking stick and tell you they fought a war for you.
Senile old tw@ts...

Rant over =)

No E but my friend did see one go up a one way street and casue a huge pile up lol they have to have training on them you know.
i like that granny on the bingo advert that goes from tramp to riches lol

Nope, my wife has one

I AM ONE OF THOSE WITH A MOBILITY SCOOTER !! Ha Ha

We took M-in-L to Ireland and in Cork City,the pavement narrowed suddenly and she tipped out of her Mobility Scooter.
A bus driver jumped out of his cab and came over to help. The Garda turned up and booked the bus driver for stopping - not at a bus stop ??!!

It's the 'in' thing ,here, for teens to borrow their nans scooters to go down the chippy!

No- I've never been run over by either an old or young person on a Mobility Scooter

You're not the only one!

When these old folk get those scooters,..it's like a new pair of leg's to them and they do like to run you down !

Allot of them need a ASBO lol for driving them Thing's! ;)

Not been run over yet...but I have come close. Them things are lethal in the wrong hands.
I want one when I get older...lol

Woo Hoo I bet they are fun Elric!!!! Must make a note to get one when I am older lol !!!! At least you got called 'sonny' Elric must have made you feel young pmsl !!!

Not yet Elric....but some of the Oldies are lethal on them !!

Pmsl ....... I know exactly what you mean Elric. I'm trying to do my walk and they come speeding past from all directions. I didn't know there were so many retired formula 1 drivers in Leeds !!

I never have. I don't even see any here where I live.

Not yet but have been run down numerous times by young peeps in the supermarket. I have a chronic achilles tendon prob as a result.
