    One has to wonder if the 60 Minutes hatchet job would have the same effect today. The internet would make it much easier for our voices to be heard.

    yeah it would still have been bad... look at what's going on with guns. Same thing, one small group of people who don't like guns are trying their damnedest to take them away from the Millions who do like them ... the only thing different is if they were to take all the guns from us, the criminals would still have theirs and the violence would continue.
    Im just wondering though, as im going through that report that someone published here about a month or two ago that listed the 2500+ injuries and deaths due to 3 wheelers, that if that was made public back then and if people actually read it, if the whole mess would have ever even gotten off the ground?
    almost 90% of the reported accidents and deaths were due to either drinking, no helmet, too young and inexperienced rider or riding on a street and getting clipped by a car. in other words, hardly any mention of the machine just up and throwing the rider or being at fault as to make the rider crash on its own.
