I just last month had a dog run after me and dart under the front wheel. No ins other than min. Probably will never see a penny from dogs owner. Have a scooter with 3k on it that was in brand new condition laying in a heap near the entrance of my property. Had there been full coverage ins co would have made all kinds of deductions and maybe got a 1/3 to a half of what it would cost to replace it. every piece of plastic is scratched or broken, the front end does not look straight and I am not sure what I will do with it. If I were to repair it I will have almost as much as to buy a new one and never be sure all the bent parts are gone. No idea what the total I am out yet including a shoei helmet, ambulance, hosp., scooter and so on but I would have been better off with full coverage this time. No one knows when it is going to happen, I was only going about 20 mph too. Dogs that run out after you tend to want to get you between them and their owners house and will try to cross in front of you to do it.
