2. How-Segway vs. Bicycle: Unlike bicycles, Segways have no pedals or breaks but use a computer system to move in response to the rider’s movement.

While bicycles can go as fast and far as the rider pedals, the speed and distance Segways can travel is limited to the battery capacity.

3. How Segway is used: Segways are used to deliver things, assist people to move, and patrol public places.

4. Why not Used: Although Segways can take place for walking in some areas like delivering or patrolling, they are neither as popular nor practical as bicycles.
