I disagree with this- I think it will work just like motorized wheelchairs. You dont hear of them causing accidents, or being dangerous.

Since there are many reports of Americans being too fat, it doesn't seem like another excuse for not walking should be promoted. People who are in wheelchairs are in them because they have to be and always gain weight. If the government wants to get into legislating how we travel, which it shouldn't, it would cut health care costs to require everyone to walk up or down one flight of stairs in office buildings.

my post had nothing to do with people getting fat and lazy. (too true) I just think they are over-regulating this thing before it even comes out. It is the natural reaction of the govt. now (How can we tax or regulate everything?)
