I’m 13 and used to race my 50cc when I was younger. My dad just recently told me about this new law for USA that kids under 12 can’t have a motorcycle, because someone said they have lead, which they do in the back of it, but is covered by plastic. So unless you lick your motorcycle (which would be difficult to get to the lead considering it is well covered) you won’t get lead poisoning. So my question is, are you parents worried about your kid getting poisoned from lead on their motorcycle? Which I don’t believe anyone ever has. thank you
Answer:
Well, you are a little off in your interpretation of the law, but yes I happen to agree that the government should stop medling in things that parents need to worry about and tackle the bigger issues, like the global economy, war, poverty etc. I never had kids, but I would be less concerned about kids licking their bikes and more concerned about gas and battery acid spilling out onto any kid when they fall over on the bike, then something silly like getting lead poisoning from licking it.
