I liked the bit where he says, "I want guns mounted on this thing." Heh heh!! It must be SO much fun to drive.

Me, too!

But how silly is it that in the U.S., you're required to wear a helmet while riding? The thing's got a frickin' roof!

That show looks great. The host has great charisma.

Can I get one with a lazer?

*raises hand*

they don't enforce helmet laws in a lot of states in the U.S. for motorcycles TL, I doubt they'd do so for this.

Cops would probably pull you over just to look at it though.

LFR: Two of the States I've lived in do. I thought helmet laws were universal across state lines? They should be, you know.

posted by TrishaLynn 18 September | 15:14

They aren't. In RI, we're not required to wear helmets after a year of being licensed motorcycle riders. Passengers are always required to wear them, though.

there's no helmet law in Colorado.

bites tongue before going off on rant about how the trend of mandatory legislation of what should be common sense in the past 3 decades have eroded everyone's ability to actually *use* it in this nation

Thanks for this. I've been following the Carver for years but hadn't seen this.

Oh, I want one, too! This looks really cool. What does the cost translate to in U.S. dollars? I thought he said 20,000 pounds.

Want one? I already have one. *wakes up* Yeah, I want one too.
