February 19, 201313 yr Hi! Does anyone know if it is possible to by Segway Scooters in Thailand? On the Internet I just find countless offers from China. Also, I heard that there are some funny laws in Thailand about using these Scooters in public. But I don't know if this is true... Thanks for information sharing...
February 19, 201313 yr Loads of them in Chiang Mai for rent, so there must be an agent for them in Thailand.
February 19, 201313 yr There used to be a chap (farang) who constantly rode one near the Woraburi Hotel on Suk. Soi. 4. I got the distinct impression that he was marketing these machines. I may be wrong. He spent most of the day riding around a small area on one. Either way, he didn't appear to be worried about any restrictions.I Edited February 19, 201313 yr by Beechboy
February 19, 201313 yr There used to be a member on here years ago that was marketing them, not seen him for a while now. totster

February 20, 201313 yr Author re Loads of them in Chiang Mai for rent hes right : ) dave2 Thanks for the pics! Unfortunately, I'm sitting in BKK...
February 20, 201313 yr I know someone who's selling these machines next to all his scooters etc.. It's in Chiang Mai and really just like the average motorbike shop.. Guess he's not selling the Segway's because they did not move an inch since i first saw them there.. Can't remember the price, but maybe it's worth visiting the shop.. Being a local dealer it aint so dodgy..
February 20, 201313 yr re Thanks for the pics! Unfortunately, I'm sitting in BKK. no problem : ) dave2
February 20, 201313 yr I heard that there are some funny laws in Thailand about using these Scooters in public. If there isn't, there sure should be one. Tourists renting them and using them on the already congested streets in CM. They should rent bikes or walk. They are just a nuisance IMO. Edited February 20, 201313 yr by Semper

And I'm sure the Segway riders would consider the bicycles and pedestrians a nuisance... Different strokes...
