As the gas crunch began and fourteen and fifteen year olds needed transportation further afield, these free-and-easy vehicles became more and more popular. Many freshmen worked during the summer to buy the S300-S450 machines as the overflowing bike racks testified at the opening of the school year. Traveling a maximum 25 miles per hour, the bikes got up to 100 miles per gallon of gas. Traffic regulations governing their use included the general rules of the road. Operators had to be 14 years old and have a driver's permit. The bikes were required to be registered at the police station and a motorcycle license was issued. Written and visual examinations were given. The bikes could not be driven on Interstate highways. Honda Express, Yamaha Choppys, AMF, Schwinn, and store brand names dominated the market. Small and low to the ground, the mopeds were often hard to see. Usual ripoffs included stolen oil and gas caps or spark plugs. Because of this kids often removed these items and carried them with them during the school day. Bringing a moped to school meant a freshman could leave school and eat lunch at the fast food spots during the open campus lunch hour. 1 Mopeds are a new phenomenon at high school as the bike racks overflow. Freshmen who didn't qualify for a car license opted for this form of motorized transportation. 1 2 , ' if ' Donald Marsh fr ll 'X I Jason Mathers . xi, ns., . i ,,,. :-slr! 1-..l.:.g3 f . , Karen Maupin i Jon Maus , QI. , - Q1 1 X . -1, ..Q 33RK.- F .ff -sq.
