Nearly one less scorpio

On wedensday morning, I had rather a rude awakening, there was a very strange noise followed by a large bang and my Eos car alarm going off. A quick look out of the bedroom window confirmed what I already suspected, something had hit my car.  On going outside I found a vw trike, it goes up and down my road on a regular basis, had rear ended the Eos. What had happened, when he went over a speed bump, in our road, the main tube, that holds the forks on, had snapped pulling the throttle on full send him out of control down the road until he hit next doors car and then mine. A lot of the time the scorpio sits out there, but as I was waiting for a dry day to take the power steering pipe off, it was in the drive. I expect the damage to the eos will cost a few thousand to repair, the scorp would have been a write off.
