Re: the segway just got a whole lot cooler
That thing looks slightly warmer than a bicycle and just about as crashworthy.
You are unlikely to get me into vehicle lanes in one. The roads around me are littered with debris from busted head/taillights, bumpers and grills. I see an accident aftermath at least once a week.
I can imagine the stain that would be created if a current "real" car drove over the top of two people in one of these.
Incrementally introducing these doesn't sound like a viable strategy.
