Nearly everything on wheels is street legal in some states - Georgia might be one of them?

I've lived in GA my whole life and have built stuff like this. It is street legal if it has mirrors, head and brake lights. I would say these cops are being very lenient with him as long as he is not holding up traffic.

Neither do any motorcycles, and they’re allowed on the road.

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.
