Le Monde.fr : La révolte des maires américains "Ce jour-là, la Conférence des maires des Etats-Unis tient congrès dans le plus grand secret. La réunion n'a pas été rendue publique. Les édiles les plus puissants sont présents. Un scooter à trois roues fait sensation auprès du maire d'une bourgade de Caroline du Nord. Il va pouvoir faire un tour, même s'il rechigne à mettre un casque. "Monsieur, c'est la loi ici." L'engin est en démonstration. Son fabricant l'a laissé à la disposition des maires qui souhaitent encourager le développement des deux-roues propres dans leur ville. Thème de la réunion : l'environnement."

On a Friday morning in September, the most powerful members of the U.S. Conference of Mayors met in private in Santa Barbara. The meeting was not publicized. A three-wheeled scooter attracted the attention of the mayor of a North Carolina town. He'll be able to ride it, even if he complains about wearing a helmet. "Sir, that's the law here." The machine is a demonstrator, on loan from the manufacturer for the use of mayors who wish to promote the use of two-wheelers in their cities. Theme of the gathering: the environment.
