As it turned out, I settled for $700 because traffic law states that if you are riding a scooter and you are to the far right outside the right lane marking that it would be a hard case to win. The far right edge isn't designated for traffic, rather it is a leeway, or bumper zone if you will and wasn't intended for scooter traffic. So I was told from the lawyer that when you ride, stay to the far right of the right lane so if you get hit you will have a concrete case against the aggressor (if you survive the impact).
