But why the decision to ban Kei trucks from Rhode Island streets? Because the DMV claims they don’t meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).

        The driver is unprotected on a Motorcycle, the kei truck ban is … because it doesn’t protect enough the driver in case of crash.
        If you put the motorcycles on the same standard than the cars, none but a few would be allowed.
