A forum at the Oak Bluffs School last night began with the findings
of a recent study on two-wheeled vehicles and ended in a lengthy
dialogue about the history, safety and future of mopeds on the Island.
Dr. Alan Hirshberg's year-long study of accidents involving
mopeds, bicycles and motorcycles found that most moped accident victims
are daytrippers to the Island who have received under seven minutes of
training.
