I dislike the Segway because they're dangerous to pedestrians on sidewalks. On a sidewalk there are no rules. Want to toss your candy wrapper? Just head straight for the trash can over there. There are no lanes, though people generally keep to the right. Don't want to keep to the right? OK, walk on the left. We pedestrians are conditioned to listen for possible collisions (runners, faster walkers, bikes), but it's just not possible with the Segway. It's too quiet. Several times I've been very startled by a Segway brushing past me on the sidewalk, leaving feeling relieved that I didn't get hit. The only good thing about them is there are so few out there, that it's not a common problem. If there were a lot of them, there would be frequent collisions with pedestrians.
