I was out exercising in Tenby today and almost got wiped out by some middle-aged hippie looking cretin on an electric scooter who flew past me grinning at what felt like about 20-25 miles per hour.

How the f u c k can it be legal to ride at these sorts of speeds on a pavement?

This sort of contraption attracts the lowlife and moron type element in UK society.........it's about time that these things had to be fully registered and insured and limited to a top speed of around 6-8 miles per hour.

Has anyone else fallen foul of one of these e-scooters?

People have already been killed and maimed in the UK by them!
