See the red light... or the open window.

You might think going by scooter is quite risky in London. So much traffic, so many busses, cabs and other crazy scooters. Well, of course but I like it. Overtaking all the cars at the right light, great. Sure, sometimes it's quite close and a bit risky but it's fun. However, on Sunday, I experienced a new origin of danger for scooters: children puking out of a car window. Honestly, I am not quite sure if it was real puke that nearly hit me while overtaking a long queue, but at least it was a lot of fluid. Since then, I always have this picture in my mind when I overtaking car queues. So guys, watch out for open windows. Puke can hit you everytime and everywhere and then you'll have to explain that smell...
