OCPD: Most Scoot Coupes And Scooters Are Illegal
Ocean City police suspect that nearly all the car-shaped scooters for rent in the resort have illegally large motors and they are working with the City Council to create an inspection program to ensure that only legal coupes are on the road.
This is a petty gripe. The Scootcoupe comes in either a 2 HP 50 cc or a 10 HP 150 cc engine. Sure, one can go faster than the other but, do they? It's like saying one of those crotch rockets are illegal because they can do 150 MPH. If the speed limit in the bus lane is 35 and the driver is not exceeding that, what's the problem? Take the Scootcoupe into the highway lane and the speed limit is 40 so don't impede traffic with a vehicle not capable of going this fast.
It is a MD State law that prohibits passengers in the back of a pickup truck. OC permits this even though Coastal Highway is a State road. Big scooter engines don't kill people. Irresponsible motor vehicle operation kills people. Get the passengers out of the back of these trucks and leave the scooter people alone.
6:01: We're not talking the segregation policies of the 60s. We're talking about Government intervention into private enterprise that is not justified.
I've said it time and time again. Ocean City is bad news. I encourage all locals to stay-a-way from that place. To many human rights violations, ordinances, tickets, parking citations - it is absolutely ridiculous.
While I am all for being business friendly and letting the folks sell or offer what the market wants these things make no sense in OC-way too much traffic/etc. Maybe in Bethany or smaller beach towns like some of the Jersey shore towns on LBI but OC?
How fucking obsessed are you with my family. Take my kids picture off your internet site. Stop following him around. Your scaring the shit out of him. He thinks your going to hurt him. You touch him or follow him again I will take matters into my own hands. Fuck the judicial system. I gave them a chance. This is your last warning. What grown man does this to a kid? Ducking in and out of cars to take his picture. Your fucking crazy. I know you suffer from a mental disorder but its not so severe that you can't and wont be held accountable by me. You said kids are off limits. Then you do this shit. Its pure jealousy. Get a fucking life. I am not playing anymore. As I said no more warnings. JOHN ROBINSON
I heard the last time Robinson showed up at Joe's building Robinson was screaming he assaulted me. He punched me in the face, I have video of it. So what happened Joe. Did you really punch Robinson in the face and get away with it. Your my hero.
WOW. At least you won't have to put up with any more "warnings", according to big john. I know thats got to be a relief. As far as the O.C. police, I suspect that they have never read the Constitution, need some of those disco shoes so they can look at least 5'6", and are running out of reasons to ticket and fine the tourists. Whats the NEXT campaign? Texting and WALKING at the same time?
I wonder why JR just didn't show this to the "lawyer" he had coming "down once a week" who is working on the "federal" lawsuit against Joe? You know that's all a bunch of bunk because if in fact he has retained a lawyer, the lawyer would have contacted Joe. Atleast that's what happens when I contact a lawyer-they take care of all the correspondence for me.

Just ban them all together and then the problem is solved.

My advise - stay on the west side of the bridge.
