What are the rules governing these devices?
I saw a chap on one today on CS3 from Tower Hill to Westminster. This set me wondering
1. Are the limited by law to a maximum speed. At one point I was doing over 22mph and not catching him up
2. How do they steer, I presume its by use of body weight and position?
3. How does rider control speed and breaking?
Before anyone takes this as meaning I am anti them... precisely the opposite. This chap was more couteous than most cyclists, he stopped at ever read light etc. He had fantastci control of his device. He even wore a full motor cycle helmet.
I was well impressed watching him
