  • so instead of replacing cars, the invention replaces the need for walking? How could this result in anything else but a hrrific future?

  • McDonald's + Segway + lazyness = birth of Wall E

  • you know, i hear people hating on this. All it needs is a few slight changes, a higher speed compability, and something to make it safer that getting clipped out the window, and i would SOOOOO BUY IT!

  • please shoot me, if this is the future of transportation

  • another reason for americans to get fat !

    theres actually a technology thats been around for 100 years

    called bicycle

  • i have to say i have been amazed ones again the video was great great i really liked it i have to show it to some of my friends later.

  • A solution looking for a problem. I got 5 bicycles I use that are a better solution then this thing. So you say OK what about going out to diner. OK Well I wouldn't want to pull up to any place in a suit driving this. I take the Jag for that.

  • cool, driving into the movie theatre and not needing a seat.

  • what do you do if you got kids...

    looks like they can lean out of the side far enough to get clipped by a passing vehicle

    considering you can only carry one at a time

    i guess you should be able to keep an eye on that sort of thing....lol

    i unno, risky car

    lots of flaws in my opinion,

    but i dont know how far along this project is

  • i agree, veprii. what do they really hope to accomplish from this project? if this paves the way for some "smartTM car"-esque electric vehicle which could actually hold something other than a single person, then there's potential. but as it stands, it's gm and segway in a circle-jerk together.

    but don't poke fun at my hippie bretheren! yes, some of them are idealistic retards (ie "the world would be better if ... "), but most i meet still have a grasp on reality
