Difficult to secure an EUC that can simply be carried away by anyone. Apple airtags don't prevent theft either.

Ever tried to run a bicycle direct into a concrete wall at 20 kmph.. would anybody expect the front fork, handlebars, grip, lights etc. to survive without a dent or crack? I think it's a silly way to expose a "weakness" in a product. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd bet that was during the "front handle breaks instantly" testing... they rammed the new one into the stairs until stuff started falling off the stairs.

Cerbera Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Ouch ! There's a good argument for a leash ! I wouldn't mind betting that wheel wasn't going back up that hill under its own steam after that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul A Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 A leash might have dragged the rider to tumble down the cliff face as well though. Very steep, rocky, long way. Might be serious injuries, fatal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerbera Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Difficult to know isn't it - rider was almost certainly heavier than wheel, and they are both going at same speed at time of crash. Difficult to know who would get dragged where, and which aspects would have been better or worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian-NZ Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Having a leash may have stopped the EUC from tumbling before it got to the edge. The rider was travelling roughly parallel with the road. It might have just slid to a stop with him. But..... "may" and "might" - We'll never know. That would have been a heavy beast to lug up that nasty slope! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul A Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 (edited) Car Intentionally Hits EUC rider - What do you guys think? U-Stride 6.04K subscribers Oct 25, 2022 Pinned by U-Stride Laenthal 3 days ago This is my city. Here the story as was told in a local "road accidents" group - the car dude wanted to "burst through" using the rightmost lane, disregarded or did not noticed the euc dude in time (who was occupying the center of the lane), got mad and did what he did. However there was more events after the video ends - the whole deed was witnessed by a driving along National Guard (Rosgvardia) guys, who chased and pulled over the car dude. By late words of the euc (that's a Sherman btw) dude he had no idea that the car dude intentionally cut him off, so he, thinking that "eh, mistakes happen" struck a deal with the car dude for a bit of money and no hard feelings (in the presence of NatGuards). However, having learnt about this video later now the euc dude wants to sue the car dude using this video. As far as i understood there were no injuries and no real damages to the Sherman.

Yes OFR, lots of distance/buffer is good defensive strategy. Assumption of other vehicles not doing/seeing what they are supposed to, is safest. Recurring themes in so many crash vids of EUCs, bicycles, motorbikes, cars etc. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul A Posted October 28, 2022 Share Posted October 28, 2022 Recurring theme. Passing at high speed. Assuming others will maintain their line, speed, position, check mirrors, look back, will see you, etc.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The euc rider sees the biker slowed right down from behind. Unfortunately, the euc rider doesn't observe low relative speeds. There were no lane dividers. But, were both of them riding defensively, the biker would have done a shoulder check first, and the euc rider would have slowed down quickly to reduce relative speed between them. If the euc rider was riding a motorcycle instead, the biker would have had a bad day. Edited October 28, 2022 by techyiam 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the driver's reaction, and the balls /trust of that rider in his machine... and by that I mean I like that he has that trust, not that I agree its sensible !

Paul A Posted October 29, 2022 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Think it would be 75 kph. 75 mph would be around 120 kph, too fast for an EUC. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
