    Thank God that someone out there wants to take away another another of our freedoms in order to protect us from our own good jugement and duty of self-responsibility. Where would we be without their blanket of security?

    Greatful we should be that they are able to target a small, publically misunderstood segment of holdouts while completely ignoring the fact that any 2-wheeler is by design more unstable with the engine off than our devilishly concieved tri-pods.

    How far are we from being criminals for harboring such devices of evil?

    ...but then again, where would they be if we as a (supposedly)free people ignored their antics/dictated guidlines, refused to capitulate and asserted ourselves en masse in some form of civil disobedience like riding our 3-wheelers as freely as motorcycle riders ride their machines? Where would they be if common sense and education were cornerstones of their efforts and the mantra of the public?

    Without jobs....that's where.

    How long has it actually been since there has been a death that involved a 3-wheeler. Especially here in MI. Now quads and snowmobiles, there seems to be eithor a death or bad accident every weekend. So why not ban them all. People need to be saved from themselves! I was going to buy a new pistol until I found out that If I pointed the wrong end at myself I could get hurt. So now I walk around wrapped in bubble wrap and wear a helmet so I wont hurt myself. Ionce stubbed my toe wearing sandles, are they banned yet? This crap makes no sense

    Here is a thread I started a while back about the cpsc 3-wheeler ban. About 999,999 pages down in the article it says that the older 3-wheelers (everything pre-1988) will not be effected by the ban.
    I had a cow when I first read this, so I don't blame anyone for doing the same.
    Just as long as the CPSC isn't lying.
    Anyway, read this, it has a lot of good information, death statistics, and other whatnot stuff.

    Why don't they ban alcohol? I bet more people get killed by drunks, than trikes or ATVs every year. I think its all about money. Jim

    I have heard about laws that are banning the little Chinese off brand ones, Like for example the quads that are made across seas and look just like a Yamaha but are called Yamoto's and stuff like that.

    From what ive heard some of these companies make 3 wheelers.

    The Comunist Pricks Safety Commission can kiss my ass. I will not quit riding my trikes and if they don like it they can just go cry. They can have my trike when they pry my handle bars from my cold dead fingers lmao. <== and always will.
