On my way to work today two of these passed me, I was doing 40 in the city and they zipped by at 55-60 by my estimate. There was a passenger on the back of one, none of them were wearing helmets, and they were weaving in and out of traffic closely enough to touch each car. There was a red light up ahead so they just turned straight into the flow of traffic at a higher speed than I’d do in a car and kept going. I’m not at all surprised hospitals are seeing a lot of people from incidents involving these.

Usually it’s just a couple of kids driving through the parking lot and screaming at the top of their lungs every 15 minutes all weekend, and yeah that’s annoying but at least they aren’t as likely to get someone killed.
