what does this have to do with the fact that i can buy a motorcycle and drive it around on public streets but i can't buy a brand new 1500lb econo car?

None of the other behaviors you mentioned are illegal and dumb, like riding without a seatbelt.
You can buy a brand new 1653 lb. econocar, the Smart for Two.
