  People don’t even need car tbh. Motorbikes everywhere please. Zip zip, less traffic, everyone pays attention to road or falls and dies.

    Yeah, no.

    Those things are death traps and there’s a reason why they’re mostly prevalent in nations where people literally can’t afford anything safer.

    I live in Maine. Riding a motorcycle in the winter is not only highly unpleasant, it’s borderline suicidal.

    I’m all for 2 wheeled transport where it works, but anywhere that gets snow for months out of each year it’s a non starter as a primary transportation mode

        Motorcycle rider here. Yes, families with children will rent a truck anytime they want to purchase groceries, and when it’s raining. It’s not practical.

        This is a stupid thread.

        I retract my statement, this looks perfectly safe and effective.

      And the exact reason that you don’t need to buy a truck to transport goods once in a blue moon

        average suv should have racks on top to strap it and depending on the model space in the back.

    This might be the dumbest comment I have ever read on the Internet. That’s like 30 years of comments.

    You would think killing off the stupid would improve the breed. But apparently the real world shows it does not. Besides, I ain’t riding a motorbike at -40 Celsius or Fahrenheit or in 30cm/12" of fresh snow or in a thunderstorm.
