Why is it that these "green" vehicles have to appear so ugly and impractical? ::) ::).  I would not feel a bit secure in that! :o :o

If you're going to have just two wheels, they need to be one behind the other.  ;) How are you going to weave through traffic when you're sitting side by side? A bit like a big trike, all the disadvantages of a car ie queuing in traffic and  .... you're gonna get wet!  :y :y
