The accident occurred just after 3pm in the vicinity of the Palmaplanas clinic. The woman, who wasn't wearing a helmet, lost her balance and hit the ground, suffering a serious head injury.
NedPalmaPlanas is a private hospital which means she’d be billed for any treatment (unless she has a private insurance to cover it - most Spaniards don’t). Son Espases is a public hospital (Spanish NHS).
When are these very dangerous vehicles going to be barred from their use on the roads. They are driven at high speed missing people by inches on the pavements and promenades. They do not wear crash helmets or protective clothing. Are not registered and have no licence plates. A complete menace to the population.
I'm still definitely not a fan of the scooters and especially their riders.
What I'm wondering though is that if she was in the vicinity of Palmaplanas why did they take her to Son Espases??
