A scooter rider in China has learned the importance of keeping his eyes on the road the hard way. The man was buzzing along the street on his zippy little scooter when his attention was caught by the presence of a woman he found attractive. Turning his head to look at the woman as he drove by, the man forgot that paying attention to the roadway while driving is a fundamental rule. Moments later he rammed into the rear of a parked van and was thrown from his steed into the path of another scooter, which then crashed into him. Luckily however, he was not seriously injured. His main source of suffering was one of acute embarrassment, which is not likely to soon diminish either as the whole scene was captured on CCTV and then placed on the internet for public view. His name has not been revealed as yet at least and he is likely to be keeping a low profile to avoid identification.
