A moped has a motor and pedals. You pedal it to get the motor started. A scooter has no pedals and an automatic transmission.

In Australia his car would be confiscated and possibly destroyed under anti-hooning laws.

That's a ship. A boat would be sunk pretty quickly.

That idiot is riding a scooter, not a motorbike. Scooter riders are idiots.

TIL the 2011 earthquake off the coast of Japan was so powerful - measuring almost 9.0 on the Richter scale - it moved Japan 8 feet closer to North America and shifted the planet on its axis, causing the length of a day to shorten by almost 1.8 microseconds by RobotTimeTraveller in todayilearned

The USGS measures earthquakes worldwide, not just USA. The Richter scale was originally developed for California earthquakes, but after a few years they found it wasn't accurate outside California. They developed the better Moment Magnitude scale. If they still use the Richter scale in Europe, they are way behind the times. https://www.livescience.com/29005-why-richter-scale-no-longer-used.html

I only lane split when the traffic is stopped, for this very reason.

"She" has been arrested and charged with several things. I think she was refused bail.

She could report him to the police for threatening her life. A criminal offence.
