Peugeot Vivacity - Connection break between engine and wheel?

I was driving my scooter downhill the other day when it suddenly started making jerking movements. Soon the engine kept running and responding to the throttle, but there was no effect on the back wheel. What is most likely to have happened? Can I fix it myself, and if so, how?
