The ‘kei’ cars and trucks are growing in popularity in the U.S. But many states have explicitly banned them in recent years. A bill at the statehouse would allow them on Colorado roads.
I am definitely going to die if I get hit by an SUV on my motorbike, but I’m free to drive that to work all the time. I fail to see how a mini-car is materially different while we allow other dangerous vehicles on the road by the same definition.
Right, but your motor bike isn’t a threat to the companies that line lawmakers pockets to provide us with only large expensive and mostly useless trucks.
How do they do in crash tests? Are there blind spots?
Cars a death machines. We need to regulate them.
Low speeds isnt a risk. But if it’s a danger to its occupants or pedestrians/cyclists, it shouldn’t be on the road
They do fine in crashes… Against normal sized cars. They get absolutely obliterated by trucks and SUVs.
Most of them don’t go over 55, and aren’t highway legal because of that.
My bicycle isn’t highway legal, so its allowed on roads other than the highways with min speed requirements.
I don’t think cars can be banned wholesale just because they can’t drive on some highways

Can’t your motorbike go over 100kmph?
