Do not mock the Segway it didn’t kill anyone like Elon’s death machines

Except the inventor of Segway but yeah

He wasn't the inventor, he just bought the company, and then was swiftly killed.

Charger plates are extremely rarely labeled as food safe and are allowed and often do use toxic materials for their appearance. Do not eat off a charger, flip it over, it probably says "Not Food Safe" or something along those lines.

Even then it doesn’t stand up to even the most cursory scrutiny, like how are you going to fit all those extra cars on the road? If the selling point is that your car can make you money while you sleep how many fares are you actually going to get in the middle of the night when everyone else’s car is doing the same thing?

not to mention who is taking all of these taxi rides in the middle of the night to generate that kind of income
