Reply to comment by EmeraldFalcon89 in Put some signs to discourage heavy gas mopeds on the bridges and protected bike lanes by CroustiBat
I’m not gonna drive a U-Haul on the Belt Parkway, and I’m not gonna drive an underpowered moped on a major bridge.

it's weird that you think this response is relevant - I'm not saying it isn't against the rules, I'm saying that riding a moped in a vehicle lane on the bridge is dangerous, critically so.
a solution involves avoiding people getting hurt not... proof they can be punished by law. forcing moped riders to choose between breaking the law or putting themselves in critical danger sets a bad precedent for how riders follow laws and worsens the scenarios where mopeds endanger others.
also how is a U-Haul or the belt parkway relevant? on what part? it's a major thoroughfare and one of the better roads to drive a truck.
