segway license, turn signals, and no sidewalks?

[Joe3]

Well, we've heard some arguements as to why it would make sense for Segways to be prohibited from sidewalks, but is just seems to be "No you're wrong" and "Your logic is faulty" from the other side of the arguement. I'm curious as to why exactly you think Segways are so different from other vehicles and objects that are prohibited on the sidewalks. Do they not hurt as much when they hit you at cruising speed, or when they ride over your foot? I know this is bad for Segway sales, and if you have a Segway it really limits what you can do with it, but I dont think the sidewalk is the place for them. The street isnt either, but is there a better place for them in the best intrest of the whole public, and not just the few who have segways?
