The first version of the Segway, which hit the market in 2001, required riders to control forward and backward motion by leaning in the desired direction. When they wanted to go left, right, or in a circle, they had to turn a handle grip. The new-generation i2 and x2 Segways have incorporated new "LeanSteer" technology, which eliminates the handgrip. Now, riders only have to lean in whatever direction they want to travel. Currently, just over 150 law enforcement agencies worldwide use Segways for a variety of purposes, such as parking enforcement, patrol, crowd control and event security, and in community policing activities formerly done on foot. Segways operate well in all types of terrain, such as bike paths and trails, gravel, and sand, as well as in all kinds of weather, including rain or snow. Segways operate on batteries that require recharging from a normal electrical outlet, thus reducing fuel expenses associated with gasoline-powered vehicles. The i2 Segway police package includes a handlebar bag, an accessory bar for lights and siren, side cargo supports and plates, locking hard cases, decal kits, comfort mats, and LED taillight. The Segway x2, with its all-terrain tires, is designed for outdoor environments such as parks, recreation areas, campuses, and trails. Training to ride a Segway takes about 45 minutes, and Segway, Inc., is currently planning a training program specifically for how to use the Segway in various law enforcement contexts.
