    Scooter down.. 9:45 outside Westfield Pakuranga

    Anyone heard about a scooter t-bone ing a car just outside Westfield Pakuranga this morning?

    from the looks of it the car didn't give way or see the scooter and hence it went into the side of the car ..... the guy wasn't moving

    and the driver was crying.... (what a mess) pray for the guy...

    was turning right from the median across three lanes into the 1st and last enterence past the BP station.. car came out from one of the exits going across 3 lanes to the other side... so scooter into side of car..

    Ahhh well he should have been wearing proper protection, most people on scoooters have no idea, they dont realise the cars are out to kill people on bikes....
