I wouldn't mind riding one, it would be fun. Then afterwards I could join the rest of OC housewives at their local tea party. |

Awesome for joy rides. 11 of us rented one each at uni games last year and drove around in a pack. Hilarious seeing a group of massive basketball players in their gay helmets, riding on those tiny little things, beeping with the most feminine horns around :haha: :haha: :haha:
Classic :stongue: |

While I agree that they are dangerous, they don't carry a 100% mortality rate. I think it all depends on how comfortable you are with the folks that drive in your city. Well... and your own driving too, I guess. :nervous: |
my dad is one of the lead guys in national transport trauma research... i've seen the stats; almost everyone crashes. you're right, they don't carry a 100% mortality rate, but people fail to realise that just because your're not dead doesn't mean your life is worth living anymore.
being a passenger in a motorbike crash is not the same as being a passenger in a car crash. in any such crash, you're screwed. brain and/or spinal cord injuries are almost guaranteed. funnily enough, it is usually the helmet which snaps the spinal cord at the neck, thus making you paraplegic. without the helmet though, you'd be a vegetable heh. |

If you live in the city I'd go with the scooter. Parking = too much $$$$, and with this you'd be able to squeeze into spots where you wouldn't be able to with a car.
Plus with the price of gas...you'd def. be saving hella lots. |
