It's a funny thought, but...

Not sure where you don't have to have a license to operate a moped
on the roads.  I brought one back from Europe and had to get it
licensed for use in PA.  I also had to have a drivers license and
insurance. Maybe in other states this isn't the case...

I stopped riding it as people didn't seem to see it on the road.  I
stopped at a 4 way, and a car didn't.  I jumped off but he ran the
little Honda over.  You also don't have to wear a helmet in PA, but
I always did.
