GM certainly wouldn't have to pay out much in warranty, as they would all be getting run over and crushed.
Seriously! They certainly couldn't drive on sidewalks, and in the street would be certain death. "Comes with seatbelts" For what? You'll probably knock the thing over if you hit a pothole!

While I hope these never catch on, they WILL in some places...I see far more segways that I should.

What's wrong with a bike? Or walking?? Or maybe something with 3 wheels, lol
