Future of mobility

Honda says future of mobility is segway style unicycle that is easy to carry. Well, we wonder how easy. Still remember all those predictions about the segway. It never did take off like people did say.

Back when it first came out a few hardy souls braved the ridicule and started using one. I talked to an elderly man. He bought two segways, one for him and one for his wife so they could move. Well, police told this senior citizen that this scooter was illegal on sidewalk and also on road so he could not use one. OK so sorry seniors. He sold them both on ebay for less money.

Folks, we wish there were flying cars and men on mars. However, reality is often less glam that a science fiction saga. John Titor told us the segway scooter would not become max pop. Lets face facts, on the street they are not common. Future of personal mobility is not a segway.
