Not so much a question as a comment.
I just got from PC Florida this afternoon after 3 days there. I had a eye opener while there. While helmets aren't required for riders, EYE protection is. I saw rental after rental scooter on the strip and around all the beach area. Very few of the people riding had eye protecion, shirts, OR shoes. Some had sandals, but many were bare footed as the day they were born. Women/girls riding with their men and they didn't even have on pants or shirts. Many were in bikini suits and bare footed. I saw a few out of town bikers (they were riding sport bikes and cruisers) MOST of them had on protection and were riding like they knew how. Is there something the rental companies are avoiding telling these customers? Sometimes we were in bumper tto bumper stop and go. These kids were scooting up the bicycle lanes and darting in and out of traffic. Maybe a few opinions here? I was really shocked by the obvious disregard for laws and safety.

They market their products in the most advantageous way. that is to say the way that will make the most money. Protective gear is not popular because it's hot for one, And like the other person said "un-cool". they probably have to sign some waiver saying if they die or get hurt, the rental place is not responsible. They probably even have helmets and stuff but stack over in some obscure corner with no signs or suggestions.
I went to the firing range where you're supposed to watch a 30 min video and read some pamphlet before being issued bullets. I sat 5 minutes got my bullets and started shooting. get em in collect the money, and get em out. We live in a capitolistic country, money trumps values.

I guess everywhere is different. I would think that people riding with half to nothing on is "fassion" and your un cool if you have it.
Its like when you go by the beach, theres always people showing off.

When I remember my teen years, I realize I'm lucky to be alive today. Some of THOSE kids will not see their 21st birthday.
THEN, the parents will likely try to sue the scooter manufacturer, as if it's THEIR fault.........CRAZY...
