What a bunch of short-sighted, closed-minded nerds. Anybody remember how dorky the "horseless carriage" used to be? And how people thought they were dangerous and should be outlawed?

Some information
About 800 bicyclists die in the US every year
About 550,000 bicyclists visit emergency rooms with injuries ever year
Bicycle crashes and injuries are under reported, since the majority do not involve emergency room visits.
One in eight of the cyclists injured has a brain injury.
Two-thirds of the deaths here are from traumatic brain injury.
Eighty eight percent of cyclists' brain injuries can be prevented by a helmet.
Many years of potential life are lost because about half of the deaths are children under 15 years old.
Direct costs of cyclists injuries are estimated at $81 million.
Indirect costs of cyclists' injuries are estimated at $2.3 billion.
Maybe we should ban bicycles?

That's probably next on the list, as half of these geeks are still trying to get SUVs banned.

I'm amazed that 31 states have passed laws allowing you to ride those things on the sidewalk. It's not like the Segway is a conveyance for disabled people or the elderly or anything. No way should a vehicle that goes 12 mph be allowed on sidewalks. I can't wait for people to mod theirs to make em go 50 tho 🙂

The first time I see one of these on the highway, I'm going to run it over.

hahhha, this made me laugh a lot 😀
