The Evergreen Safety Council, a non-profit group, believe that the three-wheelers handle much differently than a normal motor bike, and, as a result, they have been pushing for specialized instructor certification and rider tests. Several states have adopted the program and have licensed instructors and schools.
If you feel you want the wind in your face and the thrill of riding a motorbike, then a three wheeler might be just the thing for you. Take some lessons first so that you can be sure you feel safe on the road before you make your investment.

What you probably didn't know is that car insurance companies often cover all types of vehicles. They typically cover motorcycles, RVs, vans, and sometimes even ATVs. In most areas it is a requirement that you cover these types of vehicles, especially in the case of motorcycles, RVs, and Vans. This protects you as well as other drivers on the road.
It can cost as much if not more for these vehicles as a standard car. This is especially true in the case of motorcyles. Why throw your investment away?
More than just your vehicle is covered by car insurance. Insurance also covers medical bills in the event of an accident. Depending on how much coverage you get your insurance will cover medical bills for yourself and any other injured parties-- either those riding with you or in another vehicle.
It is just good sense to make sure that any vehicle you leave the house in is covered by insurance-- no matter if it has four doors or none.

A lot of other parents are going to be quick to jump on your case. They will say that ATVs are dangerous, a nusiance, etc. Of course the same parents will gladly send their youngsters out into the word in second hand cars that look like they can't make it down the block and back.
The truth is that second hand cars are safe as long as the person driving is responsible and the same goes for ATVs. So go out for a few practice runs with the kids, make sure you go over all the safety lessons and don't second guess your decision. Kids will be kids, from the moment they become a teenager they are fascinated by things that move on wheels. It is part of growing up.

The British MotoGP 2010 has just finished after being held at Silverstone for the first time in 14 years. Jorge Lorenzo began the race in pole position followed by Randy de Puniet in 2nd and Dani Perdosa in 3rd. The leader slipped a little through the race but eventually finished in 1st place, with Andrea Dovizioso coming second and Ben Spies coming in 3rd. Australia's Casey Stoner was taken on the last lap and finished 5th having started in 6th, and his frustration was clear from the bowed head and helmet knocks crossing the line.
Lorenzo celebrated the win with an homage to British pop group the Beatles, dressing with his mechanics as their alter egos Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. He has consolidated his lead in the championship race and is ahead of the pack by 25 points. Honda's Pedrosa sits in 2nd place on 65 and Rossi with Yamaha in 3rd on 61, an injury keeping him from Round 5 this week.
