THE MISSING LINK | No Segways on the streets of San Francisco
The inventor of the Segway Human Transporter claims the upright
scooter could change civilization as we know it. Well, San
Francisco likes its civilization the way it is. The city of
streetcars and sourdough, a place you could see mandating scooter
usage, has said "no way" to Segway and has banned it from
sidewalks. Environmental friendliness wasn't enough for Segway to
sway the Bay Area. San Fran's city leaders thought it would be too
fast and too heavy to be safe on the pedestrian-packed sidewalks.
They told Segway and its well-paid team of lobbyists to scoot.
Nearby Oakland is considering a ban, too.
