I know a guy who got a "segway" wheelchair. The acceleration is impressive.
("autobalancing device or *similar technical equipment*")
Think if this would become usual (like electric cars do),
there might also be restrictions of usage (speed),
similar to the Pedelec example.In Germany, law includes the term "maximum speed depending on the type of construction". Means it might be forbidden if there's only the possibility you could go faster. This one is "generally forbidden" in Germany as it's faster than 6 km/h (counts as "motor vehicle") and therefore forbidden on sidewalks and bicycle lanes. For street usage, the technical specification is currently missing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-balancing_two-wheeled_board German : https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-Board#Rechts-_und_Zulassungsfragen Perhaps autobalancing:segway=* autobalancing:hoverboard=* autobalancing:unicycle=* autobalancing:wheelchair=* (leaves the possibility to extend it if needed) ? Here's an overview of restrictions by country depending on the type of way : http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_tags_for_routing/Access-Restrictions But I don't think that in the near future there will be a countrywide regulation for those auto-balancing devices for many countries (as technical development is faster than the government's rule definition).
