Oh well, they look stupid anyway. It'd be fun using one in private but I'd feel silly riding round the streets on it so this is no loss for me!!

That's nice..

If it's ruled unsafe then fair enough, I was just saying its a shame because they looked pretty cool.

I've never had a go on one of these but I don't understand why these have been deemed too dangerous to be legal when Motorbikes are still a thing.

Yet they endorse the sale of tobacco and alcohol? Cancer's much more of a threat to public than a fancy skateboard is.

Yeah, but it's not as painful to be hit in the face with a packet of fags..

I'm pretty sure that's not the correct collective noun in that case, Liam.

How pathetic these look really cool and I really want to try one out, I was hoping/expecting that as more people got them the price would come down and they'd become more widespread meaning it was something that didn't make you stand out as much as you do now. Surely this is the transport of the future? And I'm being serious

Utterly ridiculous ruling, I can understand not wanting them to be used in shops and buildings - that makes sense - but out on the pavement? Seriously?

I though this about the C5 and the segway (and no I'm not joking) I don't drive and I don't want to but I would love an electric vehicle.
