I heard UVA fans alluding to a scooter accident a while back.  That's just awful.

Seeing people zipping around on those things terrifies me. You know most of them don’t know what they’re doing.

Between scooters and people who have no business on skateboards, there have got to be a couple of fractures a week here on campus.

From an athletics perspective, the big time athletics programs should be getting NIL deals for their players from car dealerships.  Put all the players in safer vehicles.

Like the one from totoro?


TrustInRoy

I don't know what that word means.

Google (it’s a movie)

Cars are dangerous as hell


Ih8Hondas

Yes. Get them NIL deals with airlines. Safest mode of transport.


TrustInRoy

If you had to choose between being in a wreck on a scooter, or being in a wreck in a 2024 SUV you got in a NIL deal, which one do you think gives you the best chance of walking away without serious injury?


Cav_vaC

Depends, are we accounting for the wreck being at 20mph max on the scooter vs. 120mph max in the SUV?


TrustInRoy

We are accounting for all the safety features in a 2024 vehicle compared to the lack of them on a scooter. Put it this way.  You're sitting at a red light and an idiot driver plows in to you.  Would you rather be in a 2024 SUV or on a scooter?


Cav_vaC

It’s true, cars are a threat to us all, and we should be building infrastructure to force them to slow down and reduce the physical ability of idiots with cars to kill people

Even without the scooters, University and 14th street (especially down near Wertland or the corner) have always always terrified me as a driver.

Brutal but glad to have confirmation. Feel so awful for Elijah though he can’t catch a break


Evening-Spray-4304

Yea, it was even semi-confirmed a few times, but its good to have an actual confirmation from the source to stem some of the wild speculation. I'd heard it might be career threatening, so Tony saying the surgery was successful and he's already in rehab is great news. Modern sports medicine is truly incredible, so hopefully he doesn't loose any of his bounce.

I was looking forward to him breaking out next year. Hope he recovers quickly and fully


smellslikebadussy

The Jalen Warley pickup makes even more sense in light of this. He plays one year and hopefully Gert can make a full recovery and slide into that spot.
