“A Segway-style vehicle was recovered. He was pronounced dead at the scene.”
Atrocious writing. Sounds like the Segway was pronounced.

Suicide or accident? In any case the world has lost a productive inventor.

RIP, but THIS was an embarrassing way to go!

Like automobiles, roller-skates, and bicycles, the Segway goes where you point it. It doesn’t do the navigation or the attention to road safety and suitability. The driver is responsible as always for these.
From the details I see, an unfortunate accident but not particularly funny nor ironic. Just one of those things.

Perhaps he rode the Segway too roughly.
Maybe he should have been more Ginger-ly in his operation of it.

I remember when the news the Segway was weeks away. The super secret announcement was preceded by stories that they were about to come out with something that cost less than $6000 that every household would want to purchase. Rumors were flying about what it would be. I think there was a thread here on FR about the rumors.
What a flop it turned out to be. Nothing but a novelty item. I've seen only one since it came out.

I guess simply stepping off of the damned thing never occurred to him.
