I took a quick trip into my local Tesco yesterday and it nearly developed into a trip to A&E. Just as I passed through the first set of doors a woman heading towards me on a mobility scooter ploughed into the second set via a sandwich-board and a metal bollard. The bollard was set into the ground and flipped up a few floor tiles in the process. She was upset but not injured. I don’t know what power the motors on those things put out but it wasn’t travelling fast and it took some stopping. I don’t think it would have hesitated to steam-roller me into the door mat.
