Scooter Accident Lawyers in Florida

What to Do If You Are Injured in a Scooter Crash

Scooters can be fun for just zipping around town, taking a quick trip down to the beach, or cruising along your favorite road. However, scooters can also be dangerous. Scooter drivers need to be on heightened alert, especially if they are not familiar with their current surroundings or the roads. Likewise, all motorists need to keep a lookout for people on scooters, too. Just like a motorcycle, a properly licensed and insured scooter operator should be afforded the same respect as any other motorist on the road, as they have just as much of a right to be there as anyone else.

Unfortunately, distracted or negligent drivers do not always afford scooter operators this respect and consideration.

We are incredibly sorry that we have to meet this way, and we want to help you navigate this difficult time in your life.

How Do Scooter Accidents Happen?

Generally speaking, there are two types of people in Florida: those who see scooters cruising around town and say, “That looks awesome! I want to rent one someday,” and those that see scooters and think, “That looks like a bad idea. Someone is going to get hurt!”

Well, at The Dellutri Law Group, PA, we certainly understand both of those mentalities, and the truth is, they are both right! If everyone who drove a scooter obeyed all traffic laws and were extra courteous to motor vehicles, and if everyone who drove an automobile obeyed the traffic laws and were extra courteous to scooters, there wouldn’t be any accidents, right?

Unfortunately, scooter drivers sometimes make mistakes, and, sometimes, motor vehicle operators just don’t pay attention or are in a big hurry. That’s when collisions often occur.

Usually, when a scooter collides with a motor vehicle, the scooter driver is the one who sustains serious injuries. This is because they just don’t have the same protections that drivers and passengers of automobiles have, like steel doors, seatbelts, and airbags.
