    [​IMG] Well when I was on the bus today I suddenly thought of a question (I saw a 'pedestrians' sign). In the Flintstones when they use their car they make them move by running along the ground, so are they pedestrians or motorists?

    They have no motor, how can they possibly be motorists?

    Something equivalent to "bicyclist", feet and wheels?

    I think that the Flintstones suck. Easy as that.

    Well, I would have to say most definitely none of the above. I would concur that the lack of a motor would rule the driver out from being a motorist. However, the fact that the person is in/on a vehicle would also rule him/her out from being considered a pedestrian.

    Thus, I must agree with teekc that a third catagory for animal propelled non-motorized vehicles (including bicycles, rickshaws, horse with or without a buggy, dog sleds, Flintstone cars etc.) needs to be designated.
