Not a single one of them is wearing any eye protection, against the law in NY it's says here. http://home.ama-cycle.org/amaccess/l...t.asp?state=NY Book em Dano!

As far as their new rides, well not my style, but if I was a NYCPD I guess I would have to ride it,,, probably better in that crazy traffic anyway.

That's cool little site. By the way, in many states the windshield counts as eye protection.

As for the Vespa's if I was a moto-cop I wouldn't like it so much, but I can see why the accountants would.

In Illinois the windshield can be your eye protection.

As Mike Rowe said on Dirty Jobs the other night..."riding a moped is like having sex with a fat woman...it's fun until somebody sees you."

I've seen them on that recently. You should see the way they navigate through traffic, it's pretty impressive. But it aint no harley. Also, in nyc, a windshield doesn't count as eye protection. Don't get me started on the eye protection bs here in nyc.

A rough ride is better than a smooth walk.
