Yesterday, about 5:30, I was heading West on the 290 and I was passed by a woman on a pink scooter in the left lane. At this point, I was just in awe. So I whipped out behind her, and she was doing 70ish. WTF? I didn’t know scooters would go that fast, and I didn’t know a woman would be crazy enough to do it. Did anyone else see this?
