Another reminder: Don't ride like an asshole and pay attention to your surroundings!
Just because your scooter can hit higher speeds doesn't mean you should go that fast: If you can't adhere to the rules then you shouldn't be riding on the path or riding at all.
The e-scooter involved in the crash was not legal for street use, because it was capable of much faster speeds than allowed under city law, and should not have been operated on any city streets or bike paths. The photos of the crash site appear to show a Teverun Blade GT Suit II+ e-scooter, billed on the company’s website as a “wolf in a suit” that can reach almost 53 m.p.h.
Snapped the bike frame in half!
