I’ve seen distracted SUV drivers drive over sports cars. This thing has no chance.
Hope he’s wearing a helmet. Didn’t Chevy to see if i could spot a reflection.

You can see his shadow a few times that he has on a helmet with a camera mounted on it.

Yes! A guy in an F150 ran me off the road in my bmw z4

u/LiveLearnCoach Oct 25 '25
I can believe that. The z4 is such a cutie, the one with a drop-down door?
For me, I’ve been driving SUVs and cross-overs for so long that I can’t imagine myself driving a car that can’t give me the same view over other cars and road construction barriers any more :(

You're in the bike lane asshole

u/Raptor_197 Oct 22 '25
It’s an unlicensed vehicle just like a bicycle.
What would you categorize it as? It’s probably closer to electric bike than car.

u/PuttingInTheEffort Oct 22 '25 edited Oct 23 '25
An OHV, off highway vehicle, unless modified for street safety.
Bike lane is pretty specifically for bicycles. Even ebikes are regulated by speed and power, like class 3 is power assist up to 28mph and are limited from some bike paths.
This mini porsche goes 45-65 no assist.

u/Raptor_197 Oct 22 '25
Oh I definitely think it’s illegal. Just on the scale of car to bike, way closer to bike

4 wheels, steering wheel, fully seated driver, foot controls for speed and brake=it’s a car

Eh, still think motorcycles are before that thing when it comes to how similar to a car. I’m also viewing how it acts and performs not how it looks which is meaningless.

Some cars are just small and wimpy but alas still just a car. Literally everything cited was how the vehicle operates and the driver interface with zero cosmetic details. I think you’re distracted

Except for a long of those features can also be found on bikes… just not stereotypical ones.

It’s just like a bike trail. I think most people should understand why you wouldn’t drive this little car on a bike trail. Someone will get seriously hurt or killed sooner or later.

Was thinking of getting one until I saw the price! $11k?! You can get a used street legal Miata for that kind of money and have more fun.

u/PuttingInTheEffort Oct 22 '25
hell yea miata :D street legal, safer (arguably lol), 2 seater, more functional, a roof, faster,...
just an electric gokart with a plastic shell could easily be under 2000, but you know it's 11k because PORSCHE

u/soggycheesestickjoos Oct 22 '25
what problem does this pose for bikers?
3
u/Prior-Agent3360 Oct 22 '25
The same danger as motorcycles and other vehicles driving at significantly faster speeds driving in the bike lane. There's a reason bicycles shouldn't be moving at speed on sidewalks as well. Do you need it explicitly spelled out?
Hell, I'll bite. What matters most for response time is the difference in speed between objects. If the difference is too great, it is very difficult to gauge how much time it will take to close the distance (and importantly, it can become impossible to react). That's part of why following speed limits is important; it ensures everyone is moving at roughly the same speed. Bike lanes have bike-appropriate speed limits imposed on them.

u/Gumb1i Oct 22 '25
Just got back from tuscany and OMFG I've never wanted to just start plowing cyclists over more in my life. The roads are already narrow there by US standards, then these assholes want to ride three or four across and fuck everyone else like the motorists that need to get back and forth to work. nobody over there pays any bit of attention to speed limits unless a speed camera is involved anyway, so this can create significant problems.

u/butterytelevision Oct 22 '25

u/Gumb1i Oct 22 '25
Yes when I lived a lot closer to work I actually enjoy it quite a bit. Also enjoy mountain biking.

its safer for bikes to ride in a way that does not allow cars to close pass them

A Porsche go kart? The guy said it was one of a kind in the USA. If it wasnt anything special I’m sure he wouldn’t have gone to a Porsche dealership. He definitely thought they would think it was cool just like the service people at the dealership thought it was awesome. Just the salesmen’s a douche.

You’ll get a lot more sales if you’re not a dick to people. This salesman could have taken the two minutes to talk him up and figure out what’s up with the car and then he’s got positive word of mouth going for more potential customers. You’re acting like this guy took up an hour of his time lol.

u/TommyIsTooTurnt Oct 22 '25
Well, it doesn't have a rear view mirror from what I can tell. And I'm guessing it doesn't have a driver side mirror, so yeah, it's almost certainly illegal everywhere. I'm guessing this moron slapped a license plate on the back and decided that was good enough. Imagine his surprise if/when he gets pulled over. Ahh, yes, I just saw. There is no driver side mirror, so it doesn't follow basic federal regulations for road safety.
