Why does the United States of America not have a moped culture?

1.33K viewsOther

I’m visiting Italy and floored by the number of mopeds. Found the same thing in Vietnam. Having spent time in New York, Chicago, St Louis, Seattle, Miami and lots in Orlando, I’ve never seen anything like this in the USA. Is there a cultural reason or economic reason the USA prefers motorcycles over mopeds?

Adding to that, the cars people drive are hella huge. I had a moped for a short time when I had a short commute on surface streets, and the number of times I nearly got plowed over by a giant SUV made me decide it just wasn’t worth it. I had a husband and kid to think of, so I sold it.
