Peter Passes Motorcycle Test




My good friend Peter Jorgensen took the Florida Motorcycle Drivers Test and passed. In Florida - anyone with a regular drivers license can drive any cycle or scooter with an engine under 50cc. But if one wants to drive anything larger - you have to pass the test. The test consists of going through several courses lined by cones. You zig zag between the cones - make a U turn without touching your feet to the ground - you also do a panic stop. I watched Peter take the test and was impressed with how well he did. Peter took the test on our Vino 125. Our other scooter the Vespa ET2 has a 50cc engine and thus anyone with a drivers license may drive it. Another interesting note - you are not required to have insurance or a helmet to drive a motorcycle in Florida.
