They need to get the EV mopeds sorted asap, there’s millions of petrol and diesel ones in Europe and the East that could be replaced pronto.

Hursty

Amps they are already out there but like EV cars, cost a fkin bomb

Kells77

Dry-Tinder There have been fatalities here in San Diego. People have no business riding these things at speeds that a car drives.

Kells77 100mph? Terrific.

I assume they’re going downhill as they’re not really that fast on a flat surface, I mean, fast enough to burst yer bollix if you fall off but not fast enough that you need goggles.

Millsy

We have a bunch of these absolute whoppers going from Sandbanks to Southbourne too. Bellwhiffs.

Kells77

Along_the_Wire More like 20-30mph, but I’m not sure how they could/would open up on the freeway. I have every confidence someone will try it out soon though.

LT42 goggles

Boss look for your average e-commuter though.

LT42 I don’t know how fast the guy that died was going - he crashed into a tree, so I’d guess he wasn’t going at a leisurely pace. Another scooter death happened when a car crashed into them in Chula Vista (San Diego county), on a road with traffic, so I’d imagine they were able to keep up decently. Neither of these people were wearing a helmet, because it wasn’t required by law (although I think they’ve changed that now or are working to do so)

I think that you can de-restrict them. The one that I have seen are going faster than a pushbike.

Definitely, some WW2 aviation clobber would look mint

Mad_Cyril Me, whenever I get in a Tesla…

LT42

Dry-Tinder They’ve made them a little faster over here (on the app they say its because of requests by the users). I wouldn’t like to come off going full clip, took one to the bakery yesterday and I had an old man moment where I jumped off and thought, “young man’s game that”, a little too much speed mixed with the quality of car driver here is a recipe for disaster.

Along_the_Wire

I wonder how much your average car-driving gammon hates them compared to bikes?

Millsy

LT42 would be some buzz on the moonshine

Heno

Millsy yeah we got a load of them over on a stag in Lisbon 2 years ago was carnage, don’t know how someone was not killed, think I still have about 50€ credit from them, was trying to top up with my phone shit faced and blew a small fortune on them

Hursty

Must admit it’s quite comical seeing middle aged blokes dressed up like Eminem riding to the shop to buy their beer for Friday night.

The amount of them on the streets have grown exponentially this year, so much for the law

It was hard seltzer I was going for Hursty.

bosstrabs

Hope they get banned soon.

But enough about Hursty and Heno.

Dubman

Saw a young father going down a main road with his young son with no helmet or anything.

Old-Dutch

Lol. I’m saying nothing

Lol!!!

Hursty

Old-Dutch Was that you I saw last night Dutch? On the hunt for fresh meat on your pimped up e-scooter?! 🤣
