Any idea on the law regarding mini motorbikes? For the last few weeks we've been plagued by young kids riding mini motos up and down our street, either on the pavement or on the road. None of the kids (the oldest about 16, the youngest 10ish) wear helmets, they zoom from the pavement, in between parked cars onto the road and back again without any heed paid to pedestrians or motorists - I don't know how they've managed to escape serious accident so far. A number of local residents have approached the local police about it, but quite honestly when they can be bothered to come out they give the kids a quick lecture and as soon as they've gone the kids are back on them again. Is road tax payable as they are driving along the road, do the police have power to confiscate these motos if the kids are perpectual nusiances - any advice?

Why aren't motorbikes promoted as a greener alternative to cars? Wouldn't it be a good marketing tactic?

What about just general purpose motorcycles for everyday transport?

any ways to prevent criminals using motorbikes? assassins, robbers, thieves, etc are using this for quick mobility, can get away thru the heaviest traffic jams with ease. Worst, they are hard to be identified since most used full covered helmets. Haha,just like the movie "catch me if you can". Let's think of ways to prevent this. guys, i'm not kidding, this is reality, not in the movies!Maybe it had not happened in your place. But here in the Phlippines, it does. By now, effective measures have not yet been developed. Your ideas can help a lot, just in case. however, we can't ban the use of helmets...In some areas, they made measures as banning back riders, and full covered helmets, but isn't this the safest protection for the head, how about our welfare, the non criminals?
Why do people with loud cars and motorbikes rev the engines and take half an hour to pull out of their drives? It's annoying especially when you live next door to them. Can't you wait till you get to the end of the street? Also, it wakes up my baby son....he can sleep through a helicopter landing on the green but not a skyline leaving a drive!(?) OK, I can ubderstand warming up the engine. Someone said it was to check that everything 'sounded' as though it was working correctly....that doesn't make no difference if your wheel falls off. Also, neighbours should be a little more considerate. I have only be livng here for 7 months, had I known that there were loud noisy vehicles in the vicinity I wouldn't have moved here. How can you help the environment using a bike? Most of you go off on pointless journeys just to have fun and go really fast..... Sorry UNDERSTAND..
