George falls off his Segway

Who can ride the Segway HT? The Segway HT is designed to be operated by a wide range of people after receiving Segway orientation -- no special skills are required. The rider must be able to step on and off the Segway HT without assistance, which requires physical abilities similar to climbing and descending stairs without assistance. The rider's weight must be between 100 and 250 pounds and the rider must be able to operate the steering control with his or her left hand. Segway recommends that riders be 16 years or older. It is important to note that the Segway HT has not been designed, tested, or approved as a medical device.
