I wonder if mopeds require a valid drivers license?
ReplyDelete6:39 No they do not.
ReplyDeleteTrailer park private property? Might not be criminal but was definitely not too smart.
ReplyDeleteCan't fix Stupid, but we can try to keep his kid safer. How will this happen? Is he back home drinking and driving his moped with his kid tonight?
ReplyDeleteProbably.
