Does a Segway count as a motor vehicle? Apparently so because the Boise Police ticketed 53 Year old Richard Kober for DUI on a Segway.
Police say that at first they didn’t know if a Segway fell under Idaho law for driving under the influence.
Segways are electric-powered machines that a person propels by leaning in different directions.
Police eventually decided the machine did fall under DUI laws and issued a ticket.
When I was caught operating a Vehicle under the influence do you think they gave me a ticket. Hell, no. I got hauled away to jail. I should have been driving a segway home.
