Have you ever thought of riding a scooter around your area to get to work or to play? With the cost of gas these days, you should. Two wheeled scooters are extremely popular now and with gas on the rise their popularity should rise with it. Think about going to the local market these days, going to have a BBQ with friends or practically any travel within your local area. If you hop in your car it will probably cost you between $1.00 -$2.00 each trip. However with a scooter it will be at least 10 times cheaper and you will have fun too.
Scooters have been very popular in the many Asian countries for years now, such as India, where a scooter is the primarily form of transportation. The cost of maintaining a scooter is again at least 10 times less than a car so maybe those that use them have been a head of the game for a long time.
Of, course you must keep safety in mind so taking a scooter on a highway or freeway is not a good idea. Also any major roads you need to be careful as well. Each city has their own scooter regulations, so check into them before you start to scoot around.

Vespa, Honda, and Yamaha are some of the the most popular brands and you can find motorized, electric, or gas scooters.
