I fell they need to come with a pamphlet discussing some rudimentary physics. There are a lot of young people around here on them, and I am in favour of them, to be clear. But the speed that some of them are going, I can't help but think that you can't just come to a dead stop without some kind of arse over tit scenario. One guy was on some kind of uber-powerful one and passed me on Church Road going at least 50. I really wanted a go on that one, but my middle aged parent brain kicked in.
