Thumbs up Massachusetts Segway Legislation

From today's Boston Globe - Segways NOT intended to be included in bill on mini-motorbikes:

Quote:
...

Representative John Lepper, an assistant Republican leader who proposed the reconsideration on Monday, said: "We in the minority leader's office are not in favor of Segways being included in that bill. I don't think at this junction we're prepared at an informal session to go forward with legislation that affects them."

He said he would not have a problem passing the bill if Segways were not included.

The legislative aide for Representative Robert Fennell, a Lynn Democrat and a sponsor of the bill, said Fennell never intended Segways to be included.

"From our office's perspective, our feeling has always been that Segway caters to a different market that generally is older, has a driver's license and insurance, and has responsibility with experience on the road," said the aide, Anna Waclawiczek.
