She then proceeded to tell me how between her and her two friends they have 5 broken cars that need expensive repairs.

So it would be really helpful if I had a car to help her out when her car was broken and I’m just like… telling me about how expensive and hard to maintain cars are is not “super” convincing me to get one.

So yeah not gonna be buying a money pit and am going to enjoy just using a scooter. Sorry mamma! (As a note I’m 29 and own my own house.)

    I mean if I hit a pedestrian at full speed of 15 mph, we’ll both live probably. They’ll be reasonably annoyed with me and bruised though.

    If I hit a wall at cruising speed with my helmet, I’ll probably live. I’ll feel like trash, but i should be okay.

    I do have to be mindful of the murder machine cars that’ll use me as a speed bump though. But that’s why I consider them death traps, they kill everything that weighs less than them.

    Most escooter deaths are from cars, or misuse and alcohol.
