Also if a ban happens, as long as i can still order these euc to my country i can still ride them as long as i don't allow them to stop me so in any case as long as i never allow myself to be stopped i can ride indefinitely however fast i'd like. If they allowed me to register this vehicle and get a licence instead to ride it legally on the roads i would in a heartbeat but they didn't so they'll just have to deal with me 'til they do.. But honestly i don't care either way crime is only an issue if you are caught you know " as long as i never allow myself to be stopped," OMG... not sure what to think about this line of thought. Running from the COPS is never a good idea. I don't care what country you live in. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scottie888 Posted November 22, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 22, 2020 Where I'm at, EUCs are as common as 🛸 so I try not to attract attention to myself. In general, I try to be polite & slow down for pedestrians (esp mom's with kids), ride on bike paths/lanes as much as I can & not flout the law abandonedly (& definitely NOT infront of the Man) nor cause any dangerous traffic situations. In general, I behave much like a cyclist. I nod/hand wave to oncoming traffic on the paths, I always wave in appreciation to motorized traffic when they stop to give me the right of way & I never behave like an a**hole. I've never been hassled by the cops nor have I given them any reason/s to. If stopped by the Man, I guess I could run but why? While its possible, cops have a job & its not to hassle the public. To them, we're likely akin to cyclists so follow the traffic laws as a cyclist & there'll be no need to fear them. If we must run lights, then do it when there's no traffic as I'm sure none of us want to get runover either. IOW behave like a human being & others will treat us like so. Behave like a sh*^head & others will treat us similarly. Its just that simple. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do the exact same and make sure to stop and talk to curious people and explain what I'm riding, including police. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
