No one was explaining the most common mistake I observed which was a wheel strike to another object (sometimes another segway) and no one mentioned that all of these accidents were operator error, or even that one was not even a segway.

I see tapes like this to be destructive, and do not promote anything positive.

I would place this video among others of car accidents, or people falling and hurting themselves. I have never gained entertainment from watching others hurt themselves.

I am not saying that it should not be posted here, just that I could not enjoy it as the OP suggested.

Karl,

(IMHO), I know you are probably not joking in your response, but you are taking that compilation way to freaking seriously. Yes, you are a person of strong opinions but really...GOOD GRIEF!!!


be safe
enjoy your glide...
and if someone catches you falling / crashing on video we will probably laugh (or cry or even pray) at/for you.
