Enough Is Enough
I just have to vent about this...
My wife and I bought a moped for our son who recently turned 16 and got his M1, he uses it to get to school, his girlfriends and his Saturday afternoon job. When we registered and insured it we put everything in my name because the deal with him was that if he messed up at school, drove like a maniac etc etc we would pull the plug and sell it which of course would be real easy to do since I'm the legal owner of it. Now the thing is I don't have an M licence of any kind and just about every time he's been out on this thing he's been stopped and the reason given for the stops is that it was noticed that it was registered to a person without the proper licence required to operate a moped. It's getting really annoying and has caused him to be late for school and work on 5 occasions! I mean you'd almost think that if a cop spots a kid on a moped that's registered to a 48 year old man and it's not been reported stolen that he or she might just think for a moment that hey maybe mom and dad bought their son a moped to get around on! Like damn here's a kid just getting mobile and he's getting stopped left right and center and myself I haven't been stopped in over 18 years! It's ridiculous!
