Unhappy Unexpectedly grounded for several months (but the car is OK)

Keywords: small scooter (electronically limited to 45 km/h or 28 mph) | approx. 35 km/h or 22 mph | speed bump | pilot error | unfortunate violent impact | "complex injuries" + "you could have lost a limb" | grounded.

A picture says more than many words.

Time to think up a good story "there I was, flat through Eau Rouge when all of a sudden..."

Wishing you a speedy recovery
