Motor-Scooter's in South Korea Podcast

Here's the question:

I keep thinking about getting a scooter, BUT I've never had lessons in how to drive one and don't have any experience (apart from riding motorbikes all the time as a kid, haha). I would only use it to go to and from work, quick trip to E-mart, trips to the park, etc....nothing crazy across town and I could avoid big busy streets.


What are your recommendations. I'm a little freaked out to be honest with you cause everyone says they are SO dangerous. It would be fun, I would be safe, and it would make my life much more convenient. Any advice on licensing and driving instructions, where to buy, etc would be a big help. THANKS!

I decided to answer this one of the podcast.
