Depends on the state and if they get state legislatures to go along with allowing people not to need a M/C endorsement.....the jury is still out on that......we can hope, but since when do the political powers do the sensible thing?
I think it will become accepted etiquette that if you don't block the other Elio, you can park in the same space. In particular I'm thinking of those single row spaces where there are two ways to pull in. That would kind of piss off regular drivers through jealousy, because each parked Elio reserves a space for another, perpetually keeping the space for Elios. Just saying! :-)As a BIKER, IF I came to work and found an Elio in the MC parking spot I'm pretty sure it would piss me off

Touché. The same can be said about motorcycle riders that take up an entire car space. I hate seeing that at my place of work, especially when there is designated motorcycle parking (and no one parks in there - which means I'll park my Elio in that spot). By the way, I ride, too - just not very often. It's great to own a motorcycle, but sometimes it's more of a hassle during the work commute, especially when I need to bring stuff to work, or pick up something on the way home.As a BIKER, IF I came to work and found an Elio in the MC parking spot I'm pretty sure it would piss me off

OH! speaking of which, another edicate (etiquette) issue. I may consider this as a bumper sticker "Motorcycle Parking Buddies are welcome"
I know what you're saying. But since you have extended this thread, I will mention that autos are noted for their impact on overall air pollution. Urban smog problems are legendary in Tokyo and Los Angeles. When the automobile was first developed, it was looked at as salvation from the urban solid waste pollution of horse drawn carriages. If I recall correctly, it was something like 50 pounds per day per horse. I thank goodness that the only horse's rear ends I see now are behind a wheel, or holding on to handlebars.

MC's and Elios could maybe share some regular parking spots, if we park correctly for it. If we leave enough room for them, they may do that for us. Well, K it will at least get us some biker tolerance on the roads.
