I must admit I initially thought 'it takes all sorts' when I first saw the news report, but on reflection I do remember people doing the same thing on equally unsuitable modes of transport. Some of them were even covered here. Anyone remember this -
Voyage en Mobylette
I've no idea what speed the buggy 'cruises' at but if it's much slower than a Mobylette he'd be quicker walking. Maybe the problem is that the moped looks vaguely like a motorcycle whereas the invalid buggy looks like, well, he's just escaped from a care home. It's going to stand out to the cops. Having said that I'd sooner him than me going on some (or any) of the US interstates on something like that.
