    Once you get going faster than about 25mph those things get pretty scary to ride on. The wheels are to small to maintain proper control.

        I’m more scared of hitting an out of control bike with my car that can handle those speeds. Pedestrians are getting to ballsy imo. I don’t want to accidentally kill someone because they were dumb.
