There are plenty of electric cars on the road nowadays and the Sinclair C5 was a bold early attempt at something or other. This fella is clearly driving (or is it riding) on the pavement but it always seemed like a bizarre and lethal concept for actual road use. Strange as it may seem, I always think that LOTS of power is safe - i.e. the ability to accelerate out of danger and (not many agree with this) on a motorcycle it's possible to manoeuvre out of the way quickly and jump off the vehicle if need be, whereas it's possible to get trapped in a car. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying motorcycles are super safe (as I should know!).
In a nutshell the chance of me piloting one of these things down a public highway is somewhere close to zero (erm...with hindsight, it is actually zero). Sir Clive was a genius, but this is / was a stupid concept.

The Wikipedia page makes interesting reading…but not in a good way.

Sinclair Grill is a cozy little eatery that is filled with automobile memorabilia, much of it from the Sinclair Oil Company, as seen here in front of their building. Sinclair Grill

This just looks early morning peaceful and 300 miles from anywhere, and it is. I shot this from a tripod as I recall. Thinking back on it, I must have subliminally had George Tice's "Petit's Mobil Station" as inspiration.
