Re: Who Rides a Moped?
What bike lanes? Sure there is the one coming down University Avenue...really a death trap as motorists try to take the University on-ramps going Makai and having to cross over a bike path.
Or how about the one along Kalanianaole Highway going Kokohead? You know the illegal right hand passing lane for impatient motorists? Then there's the bike lane going Ewa on Kalanianaole Highway that abruptly ends at Kalani High School and you have to figure out a way to either straddle the curb and allow motorists to keep at least 3-feet away from you or hop repeated curbs while riding on the sidewalk (legal on Kalanianaole Highway betweet Kalani Highschool and Ainakoa Avenue because it's zoned residential).
There's no safe bike route from downtown Honolulu to Hawaii Kai and back. Oh and there's no safe route in/out of Manoa valley too.
Which brings me back to mopeds...if they are licensed as bicycles can they still be used in bike lanes/paths despite being motorized?
