We’ve all had a chuckle or 12 at the expense of the goofy Segway, but is inventor Dean Kamen going to get the last laugh?
Although it never became Joe & Jane Minivan’s vehicle of choice, it has caught on with law enforcement and with Europeans because they’re weird. Oh, sorry, we mean “because of super-high gas prices in Europe.”
