those motorized mini scooters are driving me INSANE!

These are too common up my way, too. I find myself thinking of Stren 12-lb test, piano wire, twine, and such like far too frequently…

In the news today:
Layton (UT) says no to pocket bikes

Pocket bikes and motorized go-carts have been banned from Layton’s streets and sidewalks.
Riders of motorized scooters are more visible because they are standing, and they still will be allowed.
The City Council approved the ordinance last week after the city received numerous complaints.
The go-carts and pocket bikes put the rider at risk because their low profile makes them difficult for motorists to see, Police Chief Terry Keefe said.
“Even an adult riding these things sits so low we’re not able to see them,” he said.

Wow. The things you learn.

I saw one of these for the very first time yesterday. I thought he was kidding.

Very annoying. And even more silly-looking than grown men riding kids BMX’s. At least they were quiet.

smartini, yes, the Pocket Rocket is a lovely addition to any woman’s collection.
