Hey,Jimmy! Mopeding is relatively as safe as the drivers around you.If you ride where the people drive like fools,say like in Cincy at the Eastgate mall intersection where Meiers Store is(right?,Ike, Crisis,Casey,and Matt?),then you're at high risk;Motorcycle OR moped.If you ride mainly country roads or back roads to get where you're going, like I try to,you're gonna stand a way better chance of havin' no serious accidents.Of course,even in small towns and in the country,PEOPLE(I use the term loosely) DO RUN REDLIGHTS without looking to the left or right.You just gotta be a way better driver than everyone around you when you're on a `ped!It's YOUR SURVIVAL ! (:^)
