Taiwan land of the scooter. My first visit to this land was back in the late 1990s, my view then as now has not changed with exception
of becoming one of the scooter riders. the pic shows my freedom rider parked next to a harley.
Mornings full of adventure, nothing like a scooter jam being balanced on a scooter along with many others only a couple of inches away somehow not crashing into each other "for the most part" bad accidents do happen...not so often...
The driving test is high tech with sensors used to monitor whether one can stay within the lines or not and stop where your supposed to stop...There is a person who grades on how one drives deducting points for mistakes and bad driving habits. There are some rules here for turns across intersections and what can ride on a free way, high way and other areas that are a little different then in the US. Takes some getting used to...
must be a hard riding brand
The gong fu of scooter riding is not as easy as one would think or how it looks....once attained there is a sense of true freedom...
4 wheels have advantages, nothing like a good ride in the mornings for a wake up...more so here with so many growing up with scooters
as part of the culture. The young guys, fix them up just as in the US some do with cars and such...very cool
