“They have merged together a healthy motorcycle and a very foxy-looking car,” said Maryland Transportation Secretary Pete Rahn. “It’s just fun.”
Autocycles are subject to the federal safety standards that apply to motorcycles. But they have three wheels and features common to cars, such as a steering wheel, foot pedals to control speed, seat belts and permanent seats that don’t require drivers or passengers to sit astride.
Virginia approved the vehicles in 2014; it was among the first of about 20 states that now allow the vehicles under various rules.

If we allow vehicles with two wheels (motorcycles) there should not be a problem with allowing vehicles with three wheels.
I've seen one of these locally,and it's missing one thing;a fourth wheel.Seriously,why on earth wouldn't the manufacturer at least offer this in a four wheel version? That would be an amazing vehicle.
Saw one today on the way back from Pennsylvania. Nothing left after a fender bender and serious injuries!

anything can be a death trap if the driver and/or surrounding drivers do not drive safely.
