I've a buddy who hit 80 going down Fountaingrove Parkway lying on a skateboard.

You can get a garbage can on wheels to 80 also, but just because you can doesn't mean it's adviseable.

Anyway, I remember all the hype about the Segway that was supposed to revolutionize transportation. Well, that was a big hit. Maybe I'm being just a bit skeptical, but I'll need to study more about the mechanics of these new wonder cars before I'm convinced....

Is this true? How fast can it actually move on the hwy? From what I've heard/read, these vehicles can't travel long distances, or at high speed. Not that this can't be improved upon.

Don't misunderstand. It's actually a beautiful car. Ideal for people who live in metropolitan areas.
