I stopped checked my bumper there was not even a scratch, but the activa was damaged badly I spoke to that guy told him the reason why I had to do this and he started off bad mouthing the Lancer driver and I just drove away. The impact from the scooter would have been at 40kmph speed and nothing happend to my bumper. |
You should have hit the Lancer instead. This would have reduced the risk to the two wheeler (if your swerving away was the reason the scooter hit you or you hit the scooter with the rear portion of the car).
