Petition Action

Make the swegway/hoverboard no longer governed by the highways act of 1835.

Petition Details

The highways act of 1835 was clearly not written with the swegway in mind. They are smaller than a baby's pram and a disability scooter and people are allowed to use them in public, so it is unjust for the swegway to be singled out and banned in public places.

Additional Information

At the very least they should be legal in public parks as bikes, being much faster than a swegway, are allowed to be in parks but swegways are not.
