Man In Wheelchair Ticketed For Riding In Street

Yesterday I saw a woman driving down the shoulder of Youree drive in one of those elderly scooters. She was going about 3 mph.. This isn't the first time I have seen this. In fact this makes maybe 10 or 12 times in recent years that I have seen someone in the street or shoulder on a battery powered motorized wheelchair. This should not be legal, and I always assumed that it was not. I hope the cops pick up wheelchairs and scooters in the streets before someone gets hurt, for the same reasons go carts, 4 wheelers, and skate boards are illegal on public highways. JMO
