A man from that state learned (http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/drunk/segway-dui-bust-528413) that the hard way

QuoteA man spotted riding a Segway in the wrong direction on a Florida road is facing a drunk driving charge, according to cops who report that the suspect admitted drinking nearly two bottles of wine before piloting the self-balancing vehicle.

Andy Sigears, 48, was busted Wednesday after a cop saw him "going head on" into cars on a road in Davenport, a city about 35 miles south of Orlando.

Sigears, who lives in Davenport, "made multiple spontaneous statements" about being drunk and being an alcoholic, a sheriff's report notes.

Cops say Sigears smelled of booze and showed other signs of intoxication during field sobriety exercises. Subsequent tests showed Sigears's breath alcohol level to be around three times the legal limit.

I got taken home by the cops when I left the bar trying to ride a bike. They didn't bust me, just threw the bike in the trunk and drove my drunk ass home.
