Being run over by the racer fellows and their bikes is sometimes way worse than the very wipeout which brings riders down. When we're talking large motorcycles, things can turn out very nasty results, and fatal accidents such as the one in which Marco Simoncelli lost his life are more than fiction.
Now, being run over by a racing scooter is definitely not our idea of fun, indeed, but it's way more on the safe side. Lower speed and lower weight are the key elements for a lesser impact, though some broken ribs could easily be on the menu, if luck also runs out completely.
