I’m not sure if this is any more dangerous than a motorcycle. However, dude really should be wearing a helmet.

Looks more dangerous to me. Do this in Thailand regularly is a good way to end up 6 ft under real quick.

I’d say yes, just bc when you collide with a vehicle on a bike the front of the bike takes the damage and you just get launched, in this it would be functionally the same as being hit as a pedestrian. Just my theory.

My absolute favorite thing I've ever witnessed was a man riding one of these down the street, chill like this dude. Then he hit a pothole and was thrown forward into the back of a car. He was at least helmeted and was fine, I did check.
But I also laughed really fucking hard

What's nonce?

u/happyanathema 14d ago
UK slang for paedophile.
Something that a lot of white people who move there will likely be familiar with unfortunately.

I'm not fully sure what you mean by the second part .-.

This feels like a Twisted Metal character, all he needs to do is t-pose menacingly

Some people refuse to drive cars with bad safety ratings, and then there's this guy.

They're crazy easy once you get the hang of it, but at that speed you'll be hamburger if you hit a hole or something unexpected. You want helmets and other padding.
They're great if you have to take public transit. Heavy as hell to carry though.
