Mopeds may be the newest rideshare option to hit DC streets

The District Department of Transportation is launching a four-month pilot program for rideshare mopeds. A spokeswoman tells FOX 5 we could see them on city streets within the next few weeks.

I'm thinking this will not go well for anyone. So many things to go wrong, like someone getting on that has never ridden a moped before. Altercations with both pedestrians and cars. Sidewalk riders. Mopeds left anywhere and everywhere blocking sidewalks.

And the most gross part..... each moped will have 2 helmets, and helmets will be required to be worn. Hell, I NEVER share my helmet, can you imagine one helmet being shared by hundreds of people? Wearing a helmet after someone who uses lots of 'product'? Can you say "head lice infestation" ?? ew.

Why yes. Yes, I do.

There is always a spare helmet available after one particular event. I was recently single, riding my GoldWing, had it parked under the clock in Solomons. A gaggle of attractive ladies, obviously drinking, exited the Striped Rock, don't remember what it was called back then.... I wasn't paying attention until I heard, "...if he has a spare helmet..". I looked up. They were all staring at me, smiling. Earlier that day I had removed my spare helmet when cleaning the bike, and not replaced it. ARRRRRRGGGG!!!

So now, there is ALWAYS a clean spare helmet on board.
