Hell's Angel!!!

I bet Bill would love one of these!!!!!!

A retired caretaker who rides a mobility scooter customised to look like a Harley Davidson has told how he is repeatedly pulled over by police - for riding a motorcycle on the pavement.

Geoff Dickson, a 64-year-old from Wells in Somerset, says he is fed-up with officers mistaking his £6,000 electric scooter for the on-the-road version it had been designed to look like.

Nicknamed 'The Wells Angel' by his neighbours, Mr Dickson says his three-wheeled vehicle is fully legal to ride on the pavement as it is limited to a top speed of just four miles per hour.

That is brilliant, an old rocker I would imagine.

I am being a right misery here, but as I am not steady on my feet, if this came up behind me to overtake me on the pavement, I would be most unnerved by it.
Sorry, but bikes are not allowed on the pavements, (although as a driver I often wish they were)

I think this scooter should be for display only or used on private land, and certainly not where there are old people and mothers with young children and blind people.
