GM/Segway PUMA has been discussed all day from microcars to car free to recumbent trikes to velomobiles with a few Facebook and Twitter comments and lots of newspapers articles ; hot-rodders all over. One video I saw is a rendering of maybe 20 in lanes with full enclosures. At first; it seemed ridiculous when I saw a photo of 1 side- it looked like a 1 person rocking horse; but after seeing about 5 videos- it did look useful. Like a tipping wheelchair, but quite useful for 2 people.
I use a wheelchair- quick release the wheels and pile the 3 pieces in my City-el, or stack them in a bicycle trailer and drive my velomobile.
With this PUMA, I am sure a wheelchair can easily be hung on the back. I was considering building up a 3-wheeler power wheelchair as a small "hot-rod" but on second thought; I would be glad to test drive a PUMA! No possible way I could ride a 2 wheel vehicle - or so I thought.
