Glad I didn’t buy a Segway

Not that Charlene would have let me. The Star reports:

Segways cannot be operated legally on Toronto streets or sidewalks, according to city lawyers.

The legal opinion says the two-wheeled, electric-powered machines can travel on roadways in city parks, but not elsewhere in the city.

Torontoist comments, “the Ministry of Transport won’t give them license plates, so you can’t take them on most roads. Where does that leave a Segway driver to take his new toy out for a spin? Just about nowhere.
