[quote AlphaDog][quote M A V I C]They were banned around here years ago.
Seattle?
I've only seen one in use around where I live. There's a little man in his late 70s or early 80s that got one right after they came out. He'd go out on it every day, and he became such a common site in our little town that they did a newspaper feature on him. Come to think about it, I haven't seen him lately, but I doubt it has anything to do with his Segway.
Yeah, the parks department first banned them in greenlake. The rental place didn't help, as the people they rented to were clueless and inconsiderate. Then they were banned on the sidewalks (not sure if they were ever allowed.) Not sure how big the ban is now, but the only place to ride them around here is in the streets.
