ORIGINAL Hilarious video shows Rexburg Idaho police Segway training ending in a crash

REXBURG – Several officers from the Rexburg Police Department recently learned that riding a Segway isn’t as easy as it looks.
At the beginning of the video above, Chief Shane Turman tries to control the two-wheeled motorized personal vehicle. After being jerked around, he slams into a chair and hops off.

As other police officers laugh, Turman says, “Okay. There’s gonna have to be a little training.”
That’s when Captain Randy Lewis decides to give the Segway a try.

He gets on, grasping a side table, and says, “I got her.”

Within seconds, Lewis crashes into a table and tumbles to the ground. His fellow officers roar in laughter.

Fortunately Lewis tells us he’s doing fine and, since this video was shot, he and Turman have properly learned how to ride a Segway.

Thanks to the Rexburg Police Department for giving us a good laugh!
