At least the kid isn't sitting on the back of the motorcycle.

Doesn't that say " Move to Florida and get a free kid carrier milk crate for your motorbike " on the side of that bus ?

Couldn't he at least have put wheels on the crate? How'd he drive more than a meter without the child falling out?

No, you see, this is the Florida driver's license road test. He wants to be ready.

That appears to be a Mo-Ped ... a Mo-Ped is NOT a motorcycle ... merely sayin' ...

I have to say that this looks somewhat bogus to me.
It appears that the bike is just parked (look at stand in the rear). The guy is doing a good job of not moving but looking like he is.
Am I right, or what?

Still doesn't reach the level of the shark on the bus incident...

Has anyone thought that maybe he didn't know the baby was tied to his motorbike? Maybe he was minding his own business when some prankster tied the crate to the back of his bike. Wouldn't I would make a great defense attorney? It looks a little bogus to me too J.B.

Nah, it looks mostly legit ... speakin' as a professional photographer, the stop-action is perty good, so he wuz prolly goin' slow ... the bus and car in the background also have good detail and resolution, with the "spokes" of the wheels well defined ... the "stand" is slanted backward, not holdin' the machine up (apparently) and tho his off-side foot/leg is kinda like he's standin' it up, no foot is visible below the machine ... tho that could've been fotoshopped, but if that's true, they REALLY wanted to set this up to anger and horrify parents and such ... and, why bother? (Rhetorical question) ... In a large city like that, he'd be tuff to track down, as long as this wuzn't a "daily event" fer the little critter ...
/End TMI ...

Upon re-examination of the foto, that off-side leg bein' lower (and the near-side leg higher) seems to be related to the fact that he's actually pedalling the Mo-Ped ... so, very low speed would seem to be the case ...
/End superflousityness of TMI ...

i thought he was on his way to Florida...

Mind you, my dad used to pull us on a sled tied behind his car. In those days, it was okay -- and it was great fun!

This is a great invention; the bottom of the crate is self-greasing -- with baby oil.
Posted by: Ralph | June 23, 2012 at 06:03 PM
The only thing I see wrong is that he should have tied the rope to the bottom of the crate. That way it wouldn't tip if the edge caught on something. Safety first!
