A man on an electric scooter was hit and injured by a bus in the centre of Granada yesterday.

The 50-year-old man was on a roundabout where Calle Francisco Ayala and Calle Luis Amador meet. Apparently, the bus driver hadn’t seen the electric scooter rider.

An ambulance was despatch and the victim was taken to the Hospital de Traumatología. At the moment his injuries have not been made public but the impact caused the bus windscreen to break.

Editorial comment: these scooters should not be allowed on roundabouts. Riders should get off, and walk it over the nearest zebra crossing.

Mopeds and bicycles are not allowed on autovía because of the high risk of accidents and the same reasoning should be taken for electric scooters on roundabouts.
