How long can one drive at that speed before the battery dies? More batteries in his pack? How hot would the battery get?

Some electric scooters can do >65 mph, but I would never risk going that fast unless I knew the road conditions beforehand. All it takes is a pothole and you're earned yourself a one-way ticket to the hospital.

As far as I know they are illegal on these freeways etc... They are here anyway. I thought it was nationwide.

Pretty impressive from an engineering standpoint. Those bearings must be glowing.


I doubt any of these problems will occur before the actual problem of his encountering a ~donut-sized pothole in that road, which will turn him into asphalt paste.
