Mopeds in Hawaii an Update
so recently the Honolulu Advertiser published a story about mopeds citing recent accidents and excessive speeds for reasons the State of Hawaii is forming a panel to look at new moped laws.
Regarding speeding and Accidents. Firstly, There is already a Moped speed limit of 30mph set by the State. It is up to the Police Dept to enforce these speed limits. By creating new laws that require motorcycle endorsements and insurance ect. we will removing this inexpensive environmentally friendly mode of transportation. 99% of all moped drivers follow the laws of Hawaii's roads much like 99% of auto drivers follow Hawaii's road laws. Why is it that we don't then limit motor vehicles to a top speed of 65mph? If someone is going to speed or drive crazy no new law is going to stop them. Rather Have the POLICE do their JOB and enforce the LAWS. Moped Riders stand up for your Rights don't let the Government try and take our Rides away from us.

Moped Laws
Aloha Mopeders
So I heard from a little birdy that the State is looking to have us safety check and license our mopeds each year. With the State of Hawaii hungry for some money they see us as an easy target. Well get out there and tell them enough is enough. We ride mopeds to save money, not pay more money.
