reading thru the legal threads alot of states....such as i live play the old.... ride a motor assist bike we will ticket you for no insurance or tag.... can be $1500 dollars in fines..... how ever they will refuse to tag it as its built from a bike frame...... I was just looking to see if mabey someone in this forum was a past legal student or somebody with more experience than myself in that matter had an idea for "proper" wording for a generic online petition that could be posted on different websites that then could be used to "apply pressure" to local authorities to get them to either allow you to drive as a bike or allow you to insure as a moped..... as the law stands now they just wont allow you either so your out of luck and will be ticketed on your way to work

the beauty of online petitions is they are some what viral......you can place them on utube vids and any related forums ....all the signatures collect in one place so if 20 people place it on myspace page and each person collects 20 signatures you can see how it adds up....

most people are reasonable beings and if you explain for everytime i dont drive my gas guzzler to work that leaves gallons of gas in the "supply" i did the math and in a city if 300 people rode motor assist "figure 125mpg" instead of suv they would save between $250,000 - $500,000 per yr my personal savings is $76 per month that goes back to the fuel "supply pool" and gets passed to people who prefer not to ride or cannot.........should be a good thing right..... well in many states they simply will not allow that.....they refuse to vin or tag so you cannot get insured......which would be fine but then they ticket you for no insurance with is on par with DUI in kansas and im sure many other states driving with out insurance will land you in jail.....

i hope that sums up the need for legislative recognition of these......if its still foggy just let me know
