#1 Darn shame he died in an accident. If only someone would have warned him about the helmet laws maybe he would be alive today.

#2 Although I should think the cops have more important things to worry about than a moped rider not wearing a helmet, something tells me Mr. Brown had other concerns when trying to flee.

#3 They will protest riot just for Darwin taking the handlebars. Old white guy after all.

#5 This just demonstrates that fully automatic mopeds should not be in civilian hands!

#9 Traditionally.
Now, they have been found to be very effective transport platforms in dense urban setting.

Not sure they'd just stop somebody like that; I'm guessing a participant one of those ride events.

#10 Why do I think that not wearing a helmet isn't the only reason the authorities were trying to stop him?

#11 Likely some warrants the press won't report.

#12 Haven't been following Revel, but it looks like things are going about as you'd expect. I used to be ferociously libertarian about helmet laws, sidewalk biking, and all that... now, having breasted the flood of murderous nonchalance unleashed by scooter startups a few years back, not so much.
