Not to mention Laptops with bigger LiPo batteries - the only battery I ever have had catch fire and it burnt a hole in my sofa! what a ridiculous knee jerk reaction.

fearedbliss Posted January 28, 2016 Author Share Posted January 28, 2016 It would be nice if they banned Lithium Ion batteries in general so that we can see how truly stupid people are. Imagine the headlines: "MTA bans iPhones and Android phones in the subway" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetricUSA Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Oh, you really don't understand, it's not just hoverboards, it is all battery drive vehicles! Hoverboard is just the latest added...

Hoverboard is just the latest added... Time to boycott NYC, don't tell me how I can/not travel! Actually not even just electronic vehicles, it seems skateboards are banned as well. But I don't get what this means.. Can you still carry it but not ride it? That would make sense since riding on the platform is dangerous. However, I don't think this will actually be enforced. People have been bringing their skateboards, skates, bicycles on the train for decades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
August Y Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Was denied MTA access on bus yesterday rolled up on my EU (first mistake) and the bus driver said no. usually If i carry it they have no clue what it is but this was the first and last time I roll up to catch a bus. Can someone post where MTA has this rule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ombre Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Does this look like a dangerous flammable device to you? No, of course not—it's a padded 22" cymbal bag! Fits my Inmotion V5F perfectly. $69 at Guitar Center When empty, this bag can be folded and stuffed into a backpack. All of you MTA riders are now "musicians". Darned heavy cymbals, though.

Stop riding there. its people like you that causes this issues. I dont think anyone should be riding our transporter in any of this crowded places. I am sure pedestrians are complaining of people like you zipping by in the sidewalks and annoying them. so there you go. now no one can because of people like you.

Hunka Hunka Burning Love Posted May 1, 2017 Share Posted May 1, 2017 Carlos, Carlos, Carlos... Cloud is a cool guy (and would be cooler if he magically appeared when I psychically summon him ). Maybe it's time to give this PDF a quick once over... I haven't read it, but I hear good things about it. https://ia802304.us.archive.org/0/items/BooksOfArslanhowToWinFriendsAndInfluencePeople/ebookDaleCarnegie-HowToWinFriendsAndInfluencePeople19371981.pdf A quote from the book : "Sigmund Freud said that everything you and I do springs from two motives: the sex urge and the desire to be great." That seems to sum me up in a nutshell. Or maybe I just have a great urge for sex. Hard to say. Hard to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only prob is he's a Canuck so it'll probably be something like Labatts which is like a north of the border PBR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dingfelder Posted May 2, 2017 Share Posted May 2, 2017 Yikes ... I hope this kinda thing doesn't spread. No streets, sidewalks, or parks? Does that actually leave anywhere else to ride? What, do you have to go inside grocery stores or movie theaters or something to ride now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
