• I have a 30mph-capable electric moped thing.

    It has a small rear number plate, you need a helmet and don't need to pass a test to ride it, just half a day's CBT instruction, or if you're old like me and passed your driving test in the 9s not even that.

    It'll only do 15-20 miles from a full charge at max power but other than that it's bloody ace for pootling round town.

  • just half a day's CBT instruction, or if you're old like me and passed your driving test in the 9s not even that.

    I remember doing my CBT in 1992, but then that's because I wasn't old enough to do my car test so it was the only way to get out on the roads on a 50cc hairdryer.

    The fact that people who got their car license before 2001 don't need to do CBT explains an awful lot about the behaviour of scooterengers.

  • CBT teaches you very little. I’m amazed they let 16 year olds out on their own after a 2 hour training ride.

    But I reckons it’s simply riding a scooter that makes you a hooligan, they just bring it out in you.
