I was stood waiting outside a supermarket and saw the lot. Thankfully no need to be a witness.

A guy in a car was slowly turning into a parking space but not indicating. A scooter, driven by a young lad and with a scantily clad young female passenger, decided to overtake and so accelerated to get by. He was doing about 30mph when he realised he wasn't going to make it through the decreasing gap.

He quickly laid the bike on its side and that pitched him and the girl off. They slithered to a halt right at my feet, meanwhile the bike slammed into the rear quarter of a parked Audi and lay there revving its guts out.

The helmet flew off the lads head (no visible strap as I picked it up for him). The seat fell off the scooter.

What made it a typical "Spanish" accident was the guy in the car and the young lad traded insults whilst the lad reassambled his bike. The girl rubbed her thigh and hands. Motorists behind started honking their horns so everyone moved off.  

Oh and no one gave a second thought to the damage to the back of the parked Audi!!! That is why all the cars here look as though they compete in banger races.

great stuff, varche

An Italian accident is similar, only the boy and girl on bike would be snogging at the time of the impact, then the boy would be shouting at car driver that his hair was now messy....

no one would have seen it happen if the scooter passenger had not been so scantily clad

I witnessed a French style accident along similar lines. In the high street of a village.

Opposite me was a bus stop with a lot of school girls waiting. Bloke comes past on a 900 cc bike, smiles and waves at schoolgirls before giving it "a right fistful". I look up the street and see a Peugeot 405 turning right left. I could see exactly what was going to happen about 4 or 5 seconds in advance. Unfortunately by the time the idiot was paying attention to the road ahead he was about 50 yards from the rear quarter panel of the Peugeot and still accelerating hard.

After a brief flying lesson he ended up skidding up the road on his @rse. It looked nasty although he didn't seem to be badly injured but I couldn't find any sympathy at all.
