This disabled man was seen recently climbing inside his own modified form of transport in Thailand. 
The handicapped motorist wheeled himself into a trailer welded to a moped which he turned on as normal with keys. 
He had modified the vehicle with the handlebars attached to the trailer for him steer the motorcycle. 
Onloooker Singthong Nammala, 36, who filmed the footage in Chonburi, Thailand, last Sunday said: ''I couldn't believe what I was seeing, but it was real. It's very clever what he had done.''

    The American Chopper guys built one of those.
Of course, it probably cost a whole lot more to make.

    It’s hard saying if he would have been allowed to do this in the US, with all the regulations we have.

    Back in the 70s I would often see a guy with a full sized motorcycle and sidecar like that riding around Oklahoma City.

    It’s Thailand. I’m sure they’re more lax with their regulation nation.
