Re: Segway popular with disabled

Wouldn't an elderly or disabled person have trouble getting on that because of the stand over clearance?

Also I doubt it would be comfortable for said elderly or disabled person to sit in for long with no seat back.

I however think it would be a interesting quad but it would probably cost almost as much or more.
