It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

No.
But put that technology in an electric motorbike that requires a licence, registration and insurance - Hell Yeah!
Here's an interesting clip.
Lmao, 100mph is illegal in many European countries. Even in highways.
Excellent Darwin tool 😆
This should be regulared. At the very least, require any user to be an organ donor
Bold of you to assume there will be organs left.
I mean they'd help with overpopulation.
While that is true, it will also reduce overpopultation with regards to his victims.
When I was walking my dog's in the park late at night I watched a dude eat total shit on one of those mono wheel things. It was on pavement, and he got pretty scraped up. I can't imagine how wrecked a person should get if they were going 100mph on a scooter.
Yay, murder suicide machines are here!
I love The Suicide Machines!
Excuse me, but the preferred nomenclature is "meat crayon dispenser".
Until you find yourself in the path of one of those assholes, then it's either lights out or maybe continue life as a vegetable
These things must be prohibited, period
That’s a meat crayon machine
At the 100 mph with such small wheels, you would not have enough time to react between when a small rock appeared clearly in view and when it stops you dead in your tracks.
I would know as someone who faceplanted after a skateboard wheel hit a pebble so small I never saw it.
I’d like to laws requiring a larger minimum diameter on e-scooter wheels.

yeah this is why I switched to longboards with big goofy soft wheels. they eat pebbles and cracks
Fuck pebbles, I got one lodged into some 54mm 95s once. I was able to tuck and roll into some grass but the wheel rolled funny after that.
Wow, you stirred up an old memory of Garrett Hill's Coffee Slam
Great illustration of a pro skateboard vs a pebble.
Can't wait to see someone riding this at 100 mph in the bike lane, wearing a t-shirt, shorts, and flip flops.
100 mph on the highway between the lanes like sport bike riders...
