The woman is reportedly denying the charges saying during voluntary questioning that she was not aware that the suitcase is a vehicle that requires a driver’s license.
When you start to realize that there could be too many laws on the books.
The audacity of that woman!
I need that shirt.
It seems to be really well thought out. Like the original meme is nice too:
But would be a lot of paint that would flake off easily so the above design looks like it would work much better for a shirt:-).
Bring back 1970s iron-ons!
And clothing that lasts for
more thanat least one year, sheesh!But were people allowed to say “removed” back then? Truly we have advanced in so many ways!:-)
Oh yeah definitely not. I’d have been grounded for weeks even in the 80s.
This is when you would respond “removed, I said what I said” (Doja Cat, Paint the Town Red), right?! Hrmm… me neither:-P.
Carrying on on her carry on, like a carrion.
It has a max speed of 13 kph, that’s practically crawling. And she was on a sidewalk. This is just much ado about nothing
She was scootin’ around on one of these. Here is another link, of Marques Brownlee giving specs and driving one.
That’s not really a suit case though. That’s a foldable bike.
I guess you are right, my bad. Still the commercial for it is hilarious.
For anyone who doesn’t want to watch a YouTube video, here are images: https://japantoday.com/category/crime/motorized-suitcase-rider-referred-to-prosecutors-for-1st-time
This is the purest form of battery-on-wheels I can imagine and I find this highly amusing.
Except the one Marques has can go 15mph, or about 24kph, almost twice that of the one in the article.
My bad.
Smh that’s clearly a class 0.5 ebike and drivers just need to share the road /s
Since wind does riding an ebike require a license?
If it can accelerate without pedal-assist, it’s not an ebike in many jurisdictions, likely including Japan.
Japan might not have a category for e-bikes. The article says the suitcase was considered a motorbike.
Since legislators realized that mopeds had been invented.
