I saw somebody on one of these things for the first time last week. The guy came passed me at at least 25ish mph. It was a fairly bumpy country road and it looked really uncontrollable he was really struggling to keep it going in a straight line, small wheels, weird undamped front wheel suspension and lots of power seamed to make a bad combination. It did have a rear brake light so that was nice.

He crashed into a bus stop and hit his head.
This sort of report is always ominous and I don't hold out much hope.
