It's fun hearing from people that live in states with no freedom, to tell you the truth in the town I live in I could hop on this thing just as it is and ride it around my neighborhood. I would make it as quiet as possible because that could draw a call to the police, then they would just tell you to put it up because a neighbor was disturbed by the noise. You would have to be chasing people down the sidewalk with it before the police here would even notice you.
