I used one when I did security...if they didn't cost as much as a car (last I checked, they were priced at $5100 or something as equally ridiculous) I'd buy one to ride along the shoulders of roads. The one cool thing about how the states dealt with them is that most places decided to classify segway-riders as pedestrians...but there's also the sh*t about banning them on sidewalks in a lot of places.

This guy invented HESCO barriers also. HESCO's are far more useful than Segway's.

Having a HESCO barrier on the edge of that cliff would certainly have been useful.

He didn't invent Segways - he bought the company. Irony aside this guy was a great humanitarian and donated millions upon millions to charity.

Upon news of his death stocks in Segway plummeted.

I'll bet that the Segway remained in a perfectly horizontal position all the way down, though. It's got gyroscopes. Too bad it doesn't come standard with BRS.

The drive them around the Quality Hill area, as well.
I also heard a guy today he was at a golf course where they had them instead of carts.
