Riding Scooters and Motorcycles 

Bernadette: When you offered to give me a ride to work, I didn?t know you rode a motorcycle. I?m not sure about this. 

Pawel: Come on, put on this helmet and get on. You?ll get to work much faster. We can zip around cars and go between lanes. 

Bernadette: That?s what I?m afraid of. 

Pawel: I?m an experienced driver. I rode a moped when I was a teenager, had a scooter in college, and got my first bike when I was 22. I ride with my motorcycle club every weekend, so you don?t have to worry about safety. 

Bernadette: I?m sure you?re a good driver, but one wrong move and I?m road kill. 

Pawel: Get on and I promise to behave. I won?t pop any wheelies, spin out, or do any other tricks. 

Bernadette: If that was intended to put my mind at ease, it didn?t work. 

Pawel: All right, last call. You want a ride to work or not? 

Bernadette: Okay, I?m putting my life in your hands. If I die, it?ll be on your conscience. 

Pawel: No worries. If we wipe out, it?ll take us both out, so I won?t be conscious to worry about my conscience. Hold on!
