Re: segway license, turn signals, and no sidewalks?

Go-Karts can be operated below 10 MPH, does that mean that we should drive around city sidewalks with them? Should the state set a speed limit on the sidewalk and have police run radar to catch Segway users using the fast keys? Police run radar on normal roads to keep other drivers safe from bad people. There's nothing other than Sidewalk Police or legislation that will keep Boston's pedestrains safe.

There is a differnce between a Segway and a go-kart. A really big differnce. It's gaurenteed that the Segway will never go beyond 12.5 miles per hour while with a go-kart you can go as fast as you want. This fact alone will set it apart from almost all the other vehicle that you will find except for one other vehicle that I know of from Honda. This law is odd though. What stops anyone from calling their Segway a motorized bicycle and what about motorized bicycles? Personally I think now all the Segway owners should start terrorizing the streets of Boston. Watch what happens to the law.
