A Strange Occurrence

A strange occurrence happened to me this morning.  The system worked. I was walking on the sidewalk on Summer Street and I heard a bell. My mind clicked and I moved to the side and turned around. There was a person on an electric scooter. He passed me and thanked me. The strange occurrence is every thing worked according to the law.  Connecticut law say bikes and scooters need to have a bell and let you know they are passing you.

This almost never happens. I have been hit twice by bikes and have had numerous near misses.  You don’t hear bikes or scooters when they wiz by you.

That is why this was a strange occurrence. Hopefully this is the beginning of a trend among my fellow Stamford Travelers.
