You have to contact your local DMV for the laws in your area, as they vary from state to state. These are the laws from the state of Minnesota, I'm sure other states are very simular. To qualify as a pocket bike under MN state law, they need to have: Motor of a piston displacement capacity of 50 cubic centimeters or less.

Maximum of two brake horsepower. Maximum speed or not more than 30 mph on a flat surface. To operate a motorized/electric-assisted bicycle or pocket bike on the streets or highways, a person must: Have a valid driver's license or a motorized bicycle permit.

REQUIRED EQUIPMENT: Headlight and taillight (headlight must be on at all times when operated on streets or highways). At least one rear view mirror. Helmet use required of any operator or passenger of a motorized bicycle if under the age of 18.

Helmet use required for any operator of an electric-assisted bicycle regardless of age and any passenger under the age of 18. Must have a permanent seat (no passenger(s) unless designed to accommodate passenger(s)). Eye protection is required by the operator (not required for electric-assisted bicycles).

Directional signals if operated at night. Working horn. Working brake.

INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS: A motorized bicycle or pocket bike would need the same coverage as a motorcycle would in this state. DRIVING RULES:Operators are subject to driving rules and equipment requirements (if applicable) when operated on the public streets or highways (which includes the main traveled portion of the road, shoulder, and sidewalk). This means that an operator could be cited for speeding, failure to signal, unsafe change of course, driving on the sidewalk, DWI (this would apply to anywhere in the state and not just the streets/highways), and all other driving rules contained within state law that would apply.

They may also not ride more than two abreast and may not impede the normal and reasonable movement of traffic. On a laned roadway, they must operate within a single lane. The operator of a motorized bicycle or pocket bike must ride as close as practicable to the right-hand curb or edge of the roadway with several exceptions (may not operate on the shoulder of the roadway).

The operator of an electric-assisted bicycle may operate on the shoulder of a roadway if the electric-assisted bicycle is traveling in the same direction as the adjacent vehicular traffic.

Too small... too dangerous... just a bump in the road I think may locatoins have laws against there use on the public roads as they are classified as motor vehicles. I wouldn't get one... they are too small... they look ridiculous and they are dangerous. Other motor vehicles can't see you... for example... if you were in front of me I couldn't see you over the hood of my Jeep.

I might run right over you and only look in my rear view to see what made the "Bump".

I don't think you are allowed to ride on the roads. But it would be a loud time if you did..

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
