Scooter riders zoom into savings

Each weekday morning, Steve Conley leaves his home north of Wilmington, fires up his gas-powered scooter and takes off -- well, sort of takes off. His scooter only goes about 35 miles per hour.

Conley heads down Veale Road to Shipley Road, then onto Weldin. From there, he scoots to Talley Road, down Miller and turns onto Baynard Boulevard. Baynard turns into Washington Street, where he parks his scooter at a bike rack and heads into work at DuPont.

His commute is six miles each way.

His weekly gas bill? Less than $4.
