THE ADVANTAGES OF SIDECARS:-
"The unique advantage of a rigid three-wheeler over a two-wheeler is the inherent stability. A two-wheeler requires constant balance and the rider must support it when stopped. On treacherous surfaces such as oily pavement or gravel, a two-wheeled motorcycle can lose traction and fall down. In Russia, the URAL is a utilitarian commuting vehicle, even when roads are covered with snow and ice. The tricycle gear supports a sidecar outfit, so it doesn't fall over when stopped. The rig can slide sideways without falling down on poor surfaces, similar to an automobile. Unpaved roads or off-road situations that would be difficult to ride on a two-wheeler are quite manageable on a sidecar outfit. Yet, unlike the enclosed automobile driver, the sidecar operator can enjoy being out in the fresh air, just like any other motorcycle enthusiast.
Since a sidecar outfit doesn't need to be supported by the driver when it stops, people with physical limitations such as short legs don't have to be concerned with dropping the motorcycle at a stop sign. Those with physical disabilities are often able to operate a sidecar outfit even when it would be impossible or painful to handle a two-wheeled motorcycle. Some URAL outfits have had the controls custom altered to meet the physical needs of the operator.
Rigid sidecar "rigs" have more carrying capacity than the typical two-wheeled motorcycle. Carrying children in a sidecar is much less risky than carrying them on the back of an open motorcycle. The big advantage of a sidecar is that the occupants can't slip off should they momentarily forget to hang on, become fatigued or fall asleep while riding. Some family pets enjoy going for a ride in the hack."
