The woman is reportedly denying the charges saying during voluntary questioning that she was not aware that the suitcase is a vehicle that requires a driver’s license.

When you start to realize that there could be too many laws on the books.

It seems to be really well thought out. Like the original meme is nice too:

But would be a lot of paint that would flake off easily so the above design looks like it would work much better for a shirt:-).

It has a max speed of 13 kph, that’s practically crawling. And she was on a sidewalk. This is just much ado about nothing

That’s not really a suit case though. That’s a foldable bike.

Except the one Marques has can go 15mph, or about 24kph, almost twice that of the one in the article.

This is the purest form of battery-on-wheels I can imagine and I find this highly amusing.
