Yes, they are hard to drive in urban areas, which is a shocker considering they were designed to drive on the ocean/beach. In Seattle we have them and they have a pretty bad record about hitting people in crosswalks, even running over a guy on a harly. They are so far above traffic that you just can't see that shit. Not to mention a couple of years ago when the axil popped off and ripped a tour bus in half killing a few kids and sending a good number to the hospital. Amphibious tours in amphibious cities would be great, but I doubt you could even get those things approved now, and no one actually has the money to make a new fleet and profit. It is also probably note worthy that the original design was made for a situation where loss of human life was already expected.
