I won’t ever drive mine anywhere but on the sidewalk.

Unfortunately it cannot drive over a speed bump at any speed.

Didn't know for sure if this included people. BOTOH, at 258 mpg, why walk?

You could stick a couple of tubes into the side and use it for a side car on your cycle.Would need to lose the top though.

I’m pretty sure that 258 mpg figure is for a level grade, straight line travel, with no wind.
