With out redundancy this is far more dangerous than a bike!

I will bet this owner has no idea the danger till its to late!
Always a possibility. Lots of people wear helmets and wrist guards on Mini Pros just in case.

I am sure it will look just like a full size segway crash. Like the video of the lady going to cross the street, on a tour, who clipped a bullard and went down. Or the camera guy, crossing a football field on a x2 segway (no handlebars), who ran over a football and went down.

I worry more about novices and the smaller Mini Pro's wheels. They aren't as smooth over obstacles, pavement heaves, roadside gutters. etc. Without ever riding a big segway, I think there would be more platform pitching and unexpected movements on a mini pro due to the 10" wheels.
