Segways should be allowed in all public facilities when used by a person with a disability as a mobility device, subject to common sense restrictions (such as direct threat, careless operation, etc.). I lost a leg in Iraq, and I am one of about 200 similarly disabled veterans of this war who has and uses a Segway. I only feel disabled when I am not allowed to use my assistive device (Segway) in public- and DOJ can fix this with the stroke of a pen. Imagine going to Disney and being told that you MUST use a wheelchair, even though your daughter has never seen you in one. Now imagine trying to go to your courthouse and being forced to walk when it hurts to do so! DOT, GSA, and the Washington Metro all have common-sense policies. DOJ should follow their lead and protect this mobility device.
