Tragic but true, but my Vespa is shattered. A pedestrian leap out into the road in front of me, and I could not avoid collision. It was a day in the hospital, with damage to the neck shoulder and chest.
So now there will be peace and not work for a while..

The pedestrian was seriously injured, but not life-threatening.

The police said that I do not have sake, and well, there is in relation to insurance. Hopefully they are able to repair Vespaen again.

But of course there will be a while until I run again Vespa.

Newspaper note from the local newspaper in Norway:

very sorry to hear about your accident, it could have been me.

What do the police mean about you not having sake? Does it mean you are not to blame?
