Are very fat people now in the majority when it comes to users of mobility scooters? It seems the only people I see driving round on one are massively overweight people who need exercise. I had to laugh the other day when one such human being ( who must've only been in her late 30s) was sat outside Mcdonalds waiting for her partner (funnily enough, he was also fat) to come out with her lunch when an old girl in her 70s struggled past with a zimmer frame! I am sure the wrong person was on the state provided machine.
Saw one the other day in Welling, the bloke looked so big he appeared to be hovering up the street, concealing the vehicle entirely looking like Jabba the Hutt on a magic carpet.
Now i accept that there will be some users of these vehicles who are fat with a genuine disability who can't exercise as much as the average person, but when you see some of these Paralympians who can manage things, i'm starting to wonder if we've just got a society of lazy f*ckers.

Just before Xmas last year he was riding back from the pub on the pavement pissed off his tits, when he had a head on with a lamppost, he ended up in the gutter with a knackered elbow, if thats not funny enough it was the same lamppost he hit in the summer!!
My kids call his scooter The Hawking Mobile.
Next time take a picture, just the thought has had me laughing for the past 5 minutes.
[insert comment here about you stereotyping and being a horrible human being etc]
But seriously, made my morning
Some of the pensioners drive them like nutters and think they have the right of way all over the place, I nearly smashed into one old bird the other week she just sped straight from the pavement into the road.
I have to agree that these machines are extremely dangerous in the wrong hands. The bigger ones can do 8mph, doesn't sound a lot, but can do a lot of damage at that speed.
