It figures it has finally happened; Segway Scooters proved what we already know. They once again proved that there are so many lawyers filing so many lawsuits that you cannot bring new products to market without the litigation causing the company to have problems.
I think what happened with Segway Scooters is that fat riders kept crashing on them, because they weighed over 400-500 pounds and then tried to sue the company. Also irresponsible folks with mean spirited lawyers out to make a buck saw this as a Golden Opportunity to sue the company.
Today we see that Segway is recalling all of its scooters some 35,000 plus Scooters, which have been sold. But I believe it is the Fat Riders causing Segway Scooters to Crash and the fat-cat lawyers trying to make big bucks on personal injury lawsuits? What has this world come to, as we deny ourselves future innovations and attack our best innovative companies?
This case study is yet more proof that we in America are over loaded and over lawyered, is it any wonder that we have stifled our future at every turn so a few greedy lawyers can walk away with all the proceeds of our talents and forward innovations? We obviously need to call in Caesar right away and get with a game plan strategy to fix these problems. Consider all this in 2006.
