The segwayists do have it slightly harder than the bicyclists. If I understood the interview correctly, some communities have passed laws against segways. Bicycists have to worry about being crushed by inattentive drivers but they don't usually have to worry about a fine.
I assume it's a fine. Jail time for the segway users would be a bit over the top.
Bicyclists do a bit better wrt PR, too. A fictional bicyclist might want to be fit or might want to avoid polluting the environment (See Calvin's dad). A fictional segway user is either the mad scientist in SLUGGY FREELANCE or Gob from that sitcom whose title has just gone completely out of my mind.
