I’m sad that scooters are illegal to ride on the road here in the uk. I’d happily pay maybe £50 a year for insurance and tax if it was an option. For a while I rode my father’s scooter around town, it was brilliant for short errands and fit easily in the boot of my car. Great for when a bicycle is a little too large or you don’t want to expend the energy. (My father never actually rode the scooter, he hoped that by adding a seat he could use it instead of an old people’s buggy, but he couldn’t get his feet down fast enough and going at a slow speed on a small pavement was hard to keep balance- he got an electric tricycle instead. )
