This happened in mid-14th century when Swedes (and then Dutch & Brits) created the first corporation.  ;) ;D :D

Yea it's getting pretty strict here in hawaii. They impound and fine if the scooter is over 50cc I know because I took six lil piggies for a wild goose ride with my old school honda elite till my damn front tire popped in a pot hole. LoL. So now everytime I get spotted on a scooter I get pulled to make sure it's not a hopped up ped, kinda cracks me up since I learned my lesson on not getting caught anymore. I like the police for doing their jobs I hate on um for picking on us peds!

Were the scoots blocking something?

The beauty of having a scoot is being able to park it anywhere.  I park on the sidewalk and chain up to a pole or bike rack all the time.

Having had my battery and battery cover stolen keeps me paranoid.  If I hadn't had it chained up at the time they might have taken the whole thing!

Sure did.

Came equipped with tools and everything since they knew where I parked it during the day.  Took me 3 weeks to get another cover sent to me from Stadium Yamaha.  Had to cover the battery compartment with part of a shower curtain and duct tape.  

But at least they didn't get the scoot.  Do yourself a favor and get a heavy duty chain for your scoot.  Two guys can pick it up and throw it in the back of a truck and be gone in about 20 seconds flat.

You'd be amazed at how many scooters I see parked in the motorcycle parking area at the subway station that are not chained to something solid.

Anytime you park the same place each day you make it easy for someone to plan to steal your ride.  And subway stations are magnets for thieves who steal cars and such.

The dangers of urban living....
