But for less than $2000 mom and dad can get junior a speedy form of transportation, and now they don’t have to drive them to soccer practice, or over to their friend’s house. But I don’t agree they should be allowed on MUPs that are designated “No Motorized Vehicles.” And when they’re riding in the streets and roads in the travel lanes, and at speeds for motorized vehicles, by grade school kids, it makes me wonder if they need to be regulated more.
