Why an 8mph mobility scooter is now a drug gang's motor of choice | Daily Mail Online

They a drug dealers , always wondered how they could afford all the flags and other accessories. Time the authorities got this scourge off our footpaths and left the dealing to its rightful age group.

Bwahahaha. Dealers on scooters.


Reminds me of when i was growing up in St Albans. There was a guy who used to sell weed off the back of his horse!
Literally would ride around St Albans selling his weed. Guy was smart though. Did it long enough to buy a house!

Him and his horse married and lived happily ever after.

(Marriage bit untrue, the rest true)

Back on topic.........
Whats really annoying about this thread is the fact i had aspired to be a grumpy bastard driving these things. Now it seems they will likely be legislated to the bageezus by the time im ready to swap out the disco for a scooter.

Maybe a petition to Tesla to build a scoot ? Perhaps Mr Musk will include a lighter and ashtray 🤣

Looks as if we may need to register all vehicles that travel over 10km/h. Compulsory third party insurance should be tacked on that.
