I find it a bit strange that so many "real" motorcyclists find the time and motivation to post abuse in a scooter forum. I don't go to an mpv forum (do they exist?) and post about how i hate mpv's
On a side note, in Taiwan every set of traffic lights has a 5-6m box painted on the road at the front and all the scooterists, and motorcyclists filter through to the front. It's awesome. Plus they often have a digital countdown to when the lights go green.
And thank the lord you guys don't venture over there, all two wheeled motorised vehicles are called motorcycles !! even a humble nifty 50 OH THE HUMANITY!
they have a few digital countdown lights in central auckland,feels like im at the drags and i rev it up when it gets down to 2 seconds
Some time ago now, I stopped in a line of traffic at a red light. There's a cycle lane on the LHS of this road. A scooter came trundling up the inside in the cycle lane - obviously unaware of the Highway Patrol car waiting up the front of the queue...
Once the light went green we all moved off - past the poor scooter rider getting the stern talking to on the side of the road from Mr Highway Patrolman...
After that I stopped using that cycle lane...
