Why didn't he insert a back up once the batteries went dead that kept the scooter upright but motionless for a duration of 5-20 minutes...

Their site says that there is a software upgrade that fixes it. Probably does something like that with the last bit of power left in the battery.

No real need for a spare battery. Simply prevent motion when battery power was within 30 minutes of failure.

Because idiots would ignore the low battery warning, and the backup woud give them 15-20 minutes extra before they fall off and hurt themselves ;0)

Because he gave people too much credit. It had a battery charge display. IT runs on batteries. They get low, it doesn't work right. It has an onboard charger. Stop, plug it in, and be on your way.

Does your TV remote work right when the battery is low? Unbelievable. You folks are so willing to jump on the company when they're blamed for people not having common sence.

To me it's the same thing as the lady blaming McDonalds for having hot coffee that she spills on herself.
