I take your point about the poor safety record of beer scooters.
I was thrown from one on my way back from a night out in Bad Sassendorf.
Lying in the road I was rescued by a passing taxi. The driver took me back to base and being a real gentleman he even refused payment although I offered loads of beer tokens.
As he was driving away I turned to identify which taxi firm he drove for.
Green and white, with Polizei written on it.
Nice uniform too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
