Well I was almost at an intersection about to turn left and there was a truck in front of me... They were fiddling with something inside the truck but I couldn't tell what it was... Then as I got to the intersection with my turnsignal on they throw a bottle of motor oil out the passenger window and it hits the ground and bursts right in front of me while I was turning...
my rear tire slid out in front of me and the bike slides over onto its side.. I let go and my ruckus flipped top-bottom like 3 times...
handlebars are bent... front left turnsignal scraped up and one of the pegs is worn down almost 3/4 of the way I didn't get a plate...
if those pegs hadn't been on there the whole bike woulda been scraped up
and! there were tons of cars in the intersection and nobody stopped or anything! I walked across the intersection, picked the bike up and rolled it to the side people were just staring
My legs are scraped up and so is my helmet... Stupid teenagers they did it on purpose of course... They knew I was turning because I had my turnsignal on.
I was going 25-30.
I am "edit profanity".

scrible., I don't blame you for being "edit profanity"-but I'm glad you're ok. Were you able to get the plate number of the jerks who did this?

Glad to hear your OK. The good part is you'll see them again. They may forget you but don't you forget them I would report it to the cops. When you see them again get the plate and report that top the officer who helped you. It's serious business. They can get in lots of trouble. I say report it because I don't want someone getting killed over it

There are tons of blue chevy trucks that look just like it here! I wasn't really paying much attention to detail when I was behind them because I didn't expect them to do this. I saw the motor oil fly out the window and after it hit the ground I had no time to react and was trying to focus on keeping the scoot under control.. not the truck.

I need to sell rocket launchers for the Ruckus on battlescooterstore ;D Hell ya! If it wasn't entirely illegal I would mount a paintball gun rack on my scooter just for idiots like them.

You know what you could do. This is really fun but not good for people who are trying to kill you. Mount a windsheild washer pump on your scoot. You can squirt kids, friends and animals for fun ;D

That's horrible what happened. I live in NC and deal with ignorant people giving me a hard time while riding my bicycle all the time. It will probably be worse on a scooter because everyone assumes you're on one because you lost your license...which would be right in my case! All well.
