They may well be. It's that a good % of the public isn't. Once motorized 2-wheelers appear on the bike paths, people will get ideas that it's ok to have Segways and scooters. And they will ride them, unsupervised. We really don't have any City force REGULARLY, FREQUENTLY enforcing laws on the bike path. As people become less dependent on their own muscles to use the bike path, they will flock there. As it is, weekends are dangerous because of so many people walking/riding without obeying rules of the bike path: stopping in the middle of the path without noticing traffic around them, walking/riding 2-4 abreast, using cell phones and not watching where they're going. Unfortunately, human nature argues against Segways on our bike paths--and sidewalks.
