I think these are illegal in Australia because they're too fast for the side-walk and too dangerous on the road.

In the first few seconds I thought "bugger, it's in German"..... then I realised it's soooo much better when you don't understand the words..

Without understanding the commentary, you could be fooled into thinking it either a candidate experiment for an Ig Nobel prize, or the "Captain obvious" episode of myth busters.....

Question: Can you take a car in a Segway?

Methods and Materials 1 Segway, 1 crash-test dummy, 1 car etc....

Conclusion: No. No, you can't.

Tinos: I didn't know that they are illegal here. I can now make an illegal Segway 'bikey' gang.

Andrew: You should publish that in a paper. Not sure what the journal would be.
