Ben See http://mutcd.fhwa.dot.gov/ Your point is exactly why I'm asking for feedback. Particularly vehicle classifications tend to differ quite a bit between countries, even in those that are signatories to the Vienna convention (which the US is not). Simon Am 01.12.2015 um 15:22 schrieb Ben

I'm not familiar with the MUTCD, and a little Googling didn't get me any clarification, but I'm guessing that "motor-driven cycles" refers to mopeds and such, not to motorcycles. On Tue, Dec 1, 2015 at 8:21 AM Simon Poole wrote: > To give us all a break from the usual political
