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.

          Very small cars have a max speed of 50 to 80 km/h, cannot drive on highway, often doesn’t need a driving license.

          The kei truck have the size of this vehicule class.
