Recent research has shown an increase in the sales of scooters, a motor vehicle that is largely unregulated as compared to other motor-vehicles.  With this rise in sales, the number of wreck involving two-wheeled vehicles has increased as well.  That’s why it’s especially important for all road users to rmember to share the road and remain alert of what is happening around them.  If you have been in a motor-vehilce accident involving a scooter or otherwise, call the Accident Attorneys of Reeves, Aiken, and Hightower at 704-499-9000 or 877-374-5999 toll-free.
