Author’s subjective opinion 作者的主观看法
For me personally when I see the horrible carbon footprint and pollution created by cars, I just want to see more green transport, especially PEVS, which are generally far more energy efficient than larger vehicles. I just feel we need to improve the safety somehow. This visual is an attempt to help by raising understanding. Also I feel a little less focus on speed and a little more on safety from manufacturers, plus more cycle scooter highways and active travel routes would be a huge help in that way.
对我个人来说，当我看到汽车造成的严重碳排放和污染时，我只想看到更多绿色交通，尤其是个人电动交通工具（PEVs），它们通常比大型车辆更节能。我觉得我们需要想办法提高安全性。这个图示是一个通过提升理解来提供帮助的尝试。另外，我认为制造商应少一些对速度的关注，多一些对安全的关注，同时增加更多自行车与滑板车专用道路以及主动出行路线，也会在这方面带来很大帮助。

都市綠流計畫 The Urban Flow Plan 中英

造成汙染的汽車。
Polluting vehicles.

造成汙染的汽車(替代道路配置)。
Polluting vehicles (alternative layout).

造成汙染的汽車可是有更多LPT(輕便交通工具）例如自行車、電動踏板車、等等。
Polluting vehicles but with more LPT (lightweight portable transport) such as bikes, escooters & so on.

電動車還有更多的LPT(輕便交通工具)。
Electric vehicles & more LPT (lightweight portable transport).

都市綠流計畫 , 第一步驟
城市中選出一兩條道路成為「綠色通道」，僅開放給無污染的輕便交通工具通行。除了緊急車輛和必要的大型送貨車輛外，不允許大型污染車輛進入。
STEP 1 (OF URBAN FLOW PLAN)
One or two roads in a city chosen to become ‘Greenways’. Only open to non-polluting LPT. No large polluting vehicles other than emergency vehicles & essential large deliveries.

步驟 1.1（選擇性）
跟上面一樣，但交通流量更順暢。
STEP 1.1 (optional extra)
As above but with improved flow.

步驟 2
行人位於上層。實現安全與持續通行：沒有人需要等待他人。行人可以搭乘自動人行道。
STEP 2
Pedestrians above. Safety & continuous flow achieved: noone has to wait for anyone else. Pedestrians could be on travelators.

步驟 3
膠囊車或自動人行道設於上層。這是可選的後續加設項目，視前面步驟的受歡迎程度而定。
STEP 3
Pod cars or travelators above. An optional addition for later on pending popularity of earlier steps.

步驟 1 撤回（如有需要）
綠色通道改回一般道路，但上層仍保留行人與膠囊車設施。步驟 1 可隨時撤回，這是本計畫的一大安全特色。STEP 1 UNDONE (IN CASE NEED BE)
Greenway changed back to regular road but still with pedestrians & pod cars above. Step 1 is reversible at any time which is a huge safety feature of this plan.

Personal Light Electric Vehicles (Specs Comparison Charts)

BELOW IS THE OLD VERSION OF THIS POST – TO SEE THE NEW UPDATED VERSION SEE OUR TRANSPORT WEBSITE HERE: https://greentransportideas.org/2020/07/27/transportables-portable-transport-tools/

Here is an attempt at providing the most rigorous, objective and accurate evaluative comparison of LPT (lightweight portable transport) gadgets to date (2020). They are rated as commuting tools using an extension of the ‘Pugh matrix’ known as the Group Average Matrix Evaluation (GAME) system invented by the author (Luc). Transport tools are in the left column & factors (considerations) are on the top row. Each factor has a weighting (importance value) which is the average importance number given by participants. For example, participants saw the portability factor as important so gave it high importance numbers with an average of 8.6 (weighting). The top speed factor was seen as less important & the average is just 5.8 (weighting). For each factor a gadget is given an achievement score which is how well it performs in that factor area. For example, the Urmo with a handle gets a perfect achievement score of 10 for the portability factor because it’s so light, small & can be pushed by the handle. The achievement score is multiplied by the weighting to produce a weighting x achievement score. So for the Urmo in portability it’s 8.6 (weighting) x 10 (achievement score) = 86 (weighting x achievement score) . The overall score for each gadget is the sum total of all weighting x achievement scores.

This will likely be regularly updated in future so best to come back to this page once in a while.To view or download a PDF of the above chart click HERE

LIGHTWEIGHT PORTABLE TRANSPORT TOOLS – INTERACTIVE COMPARISON CHART USING THE SELF-ADJUSTING MATRIX EVALUATION (SAME) SYSTEM (also invented by the author)

So which gadget is right for you personally or for your rental scheme? Simply click on the interactive chart below & enter your own weightings (importance values) for the factors. The scores automatically adjust every time you enter a value & when complete each tool will have an overall score to show how suitable it is likely to be for you.  We’re attempting the impossible – it will never be 100% accurate or comprehensive but should give you a clear objective picture on which to base your intuition. Just replace the default weighting of 5 with your own weighting (from 1 to 10).  Works best with a touchscreen – just swipe within the chart to move around. You can also use the scroll bar within the chart or arrow keys to move around. Your amendments will be reset if you leave this page. For more exact instructions swipe or scroll to the top of the chart.

For scooter rental schemes

If you are looking here for a scooter to use in a rental scheme with a capped speed lower than all the top speeds of the scooters shown then you should enter ‘0’ as a weighting (importance value) for the speed factor. Likewise, you may wish to give ‘portability’ a lower weighting given that most users will dock their scooters rather than push or carry them around. We advocate giving ‘manual use’ (pushing with feet) a high weighting given the importance of exercise, convenience of carrying on if out of charge. Using electric scooters manually can also help oncoming pedestrians to feel more at ease (personal experience) and a lightweight scooter suitable for manual use may also translate into enhanced pedestrian safety. Factors contributing to  ‘manual use’ but not included in the matrix are ‘deck height’ and ‘degree of roll resistance’. A low deck and minimal roll resistance allow a scooter to be used manually.  Among others ET-WOW scooters (AKA uscooters) seem especially suitable in this regard and they are being promoted as suitable scooters for rental schemes. Furthermore some of the ET-WOW scooters have received top ratings from users – see HERE.

If you would like us to make a revised matrix with additional factors specific to your rental scheme just let us know – happy to help. 

UPDATE JULY 2020 – The ‘Zoom’ company seems to be out of business now. Also various other scooters not included here have been highly rated on Electric Scooter Guide.com so check them out as well HERE if interested. 

We believe that we now need to embrace lightweight portable transport to help slow global warming, boost people’s well-being through cleaner air & maintaining a safe social distance while avoiding enclosed spaces with others. If you agree & wish to see more electric devices such as scooters legalised for personal use as well as in rental schemes then please sign this petition: http://chng.it/JgCQNW2pZW

So what should we call these things? I suggested:
‘Transportables‘ (transport tools that are portable)
& also ‘Lightweight Portable Transport‘ (LPT).
Here are some competing names:
Personal transport gadgets (PTGs?)
Personal Light Electric Vehicles‘ (PLEVs) (the term used by the UK government),
‘Powered Transporters‘,
‘Rideables‘ (possibly from Wired magazine).

兩輪自平衡車PDF
兩輪自平衡車WORD

看英文版 (see this in English)  

如果您打算買可是直覺還沒告訴您哪一台最適合，那就可以利用決策矩陣的方式。點擊下面看一個例子。

平衡車決策矩陣

如果要學會用平衡車那一定要看一下的安全學習的方法說明。它是按照我自己的學 Hovertrax 的經驗寫出來的。

學會兩輪電動自平衡車
十個步驟

電動自平衡車好玩也很方便，但是除非用得很拿手並沒那麼安全。您一定要先去安全的場所把一下的十個步驟學會再能騎在大馬路旁邊或其他有挑戰性的環境。千萬不要到大馬路邊學習。安全的場所算是運行軌跡，籃球場, 網球場, 遊樂場等等。好了好了, 開始了。

外出用車前
1.了解功能
仔細閱讀手冊和其他信息，並確保你知道如何關閉等等。
2.理解概念
一定要理解自平衡車的概念。

前傾=往前走
後傾=倒退
右腳前傾，左腳後傾=左轉
左腳前傾，右腳後傾=有轉

可以練習用您的手或坐在床上把你的腳放在自平衡車上面。

step off foot scooter 2

在一個安全的場所
3.上車
把一個腳放在車上面保持平衡。另一腳很快的放在上面。
4.下車
一腳走下放在車後面, 另一腳保持平衡在車上面 。
5.停車
長練習停車的方法。普通停車的方法就是後傾斜。 如果高速時要很快的停下來可以後傾斜同時往下蹲伏, 手與地面平行。要多練習看一看您在多麼短的距離能停車。Hovertrax 應該能 1米到1.5米之內停下來。
6.車削
練習專車在一個位置(一個腳前傾，另一個腳後傾) 和 轉彎 (一個腳前傾，另一個腳平衡)。
7.倒車
練習往後跑。
8.倒車時轉彎
練習往後跑同時轉彎。
9.緊急走下
在崎嶇地形上面一些自平衡車容易卡住或突然轉向所以您需要練習高速緊急走下的防法喔。注意! 要很小心，如果走下時腳下推平台車就會隨著移動。
開始的時候要往前慢慢跑，然後第一腳快速的垮到車前面, 然後 第二腳跨到最前面。

10. 速度和穩定性
當您其他的步驟完全學會了在能做高速保持穩定的測試。注意: 一些車容易突然轉向所以要特別小心。
一次接著一次您可以逐漸增加速度, 每一次更快一點。如果自平衡車的速度控制向後傾斜，或它發出噪音或震動要降低車速, 不要繼續增加速度因為如果車沒辦法更快那有跌到的危險。
高速時要往前走兩腳有儘量平衡。

摘要

1. 理解機器和概念
2. 完全學會基本的動作
3. 最後再可以學習更高級的動作

自平衡車 (自平衡單輪與兩輪車) (舊文)Self-Balancing Electric Wheels & Foot Scooters (OLD POST)

更新於 2022 年

我不再推廣使用電動單輪車（eWheels / EUC），因為現在的製造商把最高時速設得非常高，這顯然是完全不安全的。因此，未來的重點可能會放在電動滑板車、其他裝置，以及城市通勤系統上。

更新於 2020 年：Kingsong 的 S 系列電動單輪車現在被認為是最安全的產品之一。安全應該是你的首要考量。Inmotion 的電動單輪車也有良好的評價，並且是原始 Inventist 單輪車（例如 Solowheel）重新品牌化的版本。Airwheel 和其他一些品牌則被認為價格便宜、品質較差。希望很快會在這裡出現一個更新後的比較表，但目前請參考這裡。

以下是一篇內容已過時的舊文。

Update in 2022

I no longer promote the use of ewheels (eucs) given that manufacturers are now making them with such high top speeds which is obviously completely unsafe. So focus is likely to be on scooters, other gadgets and urban commuter systems from now on.

Update in 2020: The Kingsong S series of eWheels are known now to be among the safest. Safety should be your top priority. The Inmotion ewheels also have a good reputation & are the rebranded versions of the original Inventist wheels (such as the Solowheel). Airwheel & various other brands are known to be cheap & of lower quality. A new updated table will hopefully appear here soon but for now see HERE

Below is an old post with outdated information

領獎臺

金牌: Solowheel Orbit 和 Solowheel Extreme 贏了在三個部類不過它們也是最貴的。

銀牌: Firewheel 和 Rockwheel 表現也不錯 因為贏了在兩個部類。 （Hovertrax 贏了兩個輸了四個 － 要看那一些因素比較重要。）

銅牌: 你覺得呢？（可能是 Freeman A4。）

最近非常受歡迎的自平衡單輪車是 Gotway。 未來的對比表更新版會包括 Gotway。

Winners Podium   

Gold medal: Solowheel Orbit and Solowheel Extreme each are the winners in three categories, but they are also the most expensive.

Silver medal: Firewheel and Rockwheel also do quite well with each one winning in two categories. Hovertrax wins two categories as well but loses in four – just depends which categories are more important for you.

Bronze medal: What do you reckon? (Perhaps Freeman A4)

Update: Recently a very promising and popular eWheel has been the Gotway which will certainly appear in the next edition of this table.

建議 

我自己覺得兩輪自平衡車很好。它們更容易學所以我買了Hovertrax – 好玩, 品質也很好, 可是高速不穩定而且不適合不平衡的地。

如果經濟情況許可而且你重視專利那就可以買Inventist的車，因為他們有原來的專利。

Author’s advice

Personally I like the electric foot scooters because they’re easier to learn (apparently) so I bought Hovertrax which is great fun and very well built although it lacks stability at speed and only works well on smooth surfaces. If you have enough money and you value patent ethics you might wish to buy from Inventist seeing as they hold the patents.

綠色通道提案: 沒有車子的路很好走

LPT*（輕量便攜式運輸）正在興起，地球的氣溫也在上升。這個想法是：只要選擇城市裡幾條較長的道路或路線，讓它們成為無車區。一開始可以在週末實施，使用路障封路，之後也許可以永久禁止汽車通行。這個方法簡單、便宜、有效，而且完全可逆。下面的照片大多來自台北，但這個點子幾乎可以應用在任何城市。
LPT* (Lightweight Portable Transport) is on the rise and so is the Earth’s temperature. The idea: Just take a few long roads or routes in a city and make them car-free. At first on weekends, using road blocks, and later perhaps keep them permanently car-free. Simple, cheap, effective, and completely reversible. The pictures below are mostly of Taipei, but this idea could be used in almost any city.

YongKang Street in Taipei


未來新增項目，依照「都市綠流計畫」（詳見此處）
Future additions as per ‘the urban flow plan’ (see HERE)

那居民的停車位怎麼辦？
居民可以在附近獲得免費停車位、補償，或在沿道路的側巷獲得特殊通行權，但前提是他們駕駛時速度不得超過每小時5英里。若設有閘門或柵欄，電子識別系統可自動開啟。

What about the residents parking?
Residents would be given free parking nearby, compensation or special access to a side lane along the road on condition they drive below 5mph.  Electronic ID could automatically open the gate or barrier if there is one.

那需要使用這條路行駛的車輛怎麼辦？這不就會讓旁邊的道路變得更擁擠嗎？
這只是暫時的。從長遠來看，建造更多的道路和車道通常會導致車流增加（https://doi.org/10.7922/G22805Z9） ，而將道路空間讓給自行車和行人則會改善交通狀況。
（https://www.sustrans.org.uk/our-blog/research/common-misconceptions-about-active-travel-investment/）

這種現象被稱為「誘發需求」，其實很好理解。當附近道路上的車輛增加，開車變得不再舒適，駕駛的人自然會減少。相反地，如果人們有更愉快、更安全的LPT（輕量便攜式運輸）出行選擇，有些人就會選擇改變交通方式。

此外值得一提的是，在初期階段，「綠道」附近的道路上，LPT使用者如自行車騎士會較少，這反而讓汽車駕駛者有更多空間可用。

What about all the cars that need the road to drive on? This just means the adjacent roads will become busier!

Only temporarily. Over time building more roads and car lanes usually increases car traffic (https://doi.org/10.7922/G22805Z9) while giving more road space to bicycles and pedestrians improves traffic.
(https://www.sustrans.org.uk/our-blog/research/common-misconceptions-about-active-travel-investment/)

This is called induced demand and makes sense when you think about it. As nearby roads have more cars they become less pleasant to drive along so less people will. On the other hand if people have far more pleasant and safer LPT journeys as an option some of them will make that switch.

It’s also worth noting that in the early phase roads nearby the Greenway are likely to have less cyclists and others on LPT allowing more space for drivers in that respect.

那緊急服務車輛和送貨車輛呢？
他們將獲得特殊通行權（若有閘門或柵欄，可透過電子識別自動開啟）。而且很可能會迅速出現小型輕便的送貨車輛來因應需求。

What about emergency service vehicles and delivery vehicles? 
They would be given special access (electronic ID could automatically open the gate or barrier if there is one). It’s highly likely that small lightweight delivery vehicles would emerge rapidly.

我不相信這真的能實現。
「那些說做不到的人，請不要打擾正在做的人。」——喬治·伯納·蕭（George Bernard Shaw）

世界上許多地方已經實施了無車道路，而且整體反饋都相當良好。請參見此處與此處的例子。
這項計畫唯一的新增之處是將道路專門用於LPT，而不只是完全讓給行人。隨著科技進步，運輸工具變得更輕、更小、更安全、更高效；同時城市越來越高密度、人口越來越集中，這種改變終將成為必然，因為它符合邏輯。我們只需要確保我們做對了方式。

I don’t believe this can be done.
“People who say it cannot be done should not interrupt those who are doing it.” (George Bernard Shaw)

In many places around the world various roads have been made car free and the feedback generally has been very good. See HERE and HERE for examples. The only addition with this plan is to devote the road to LPT rather than just give it to pedestrians alone. As technology improves and transport tools become lighter, smaller, safer and more efficient, and as cities become taller and more densely populated this is just one of those things that will need to happen anyway because it makes sense. Let’s just make sure we do it right.

我們也真的非常有必要這麼做，讓人們能避免待在封閉空間裡，並提供安全、健康的出行選項。自行車道很快就會因人數過多而無法安全容納所有人。這項措施可以立即實施，且不需任何基礎建設！

We also really need to do this to allow people to avoid enclosed spaces together and give them safe, healthy travel options. Bike lanes will quickly become too busy to accommodate everyone safely. This can be done immediately with zero infrastructure!

你可以透過這段在吉隆坡拍攝的影片，來想像這樣的情境可能是什麼樣子(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjOh9UtwK-w）。還有這條位於北京的綠道來了解這可能是什麼樣子。我認為這條北京綠道是有史以來設計最出色的自行車超級高速公路之一（https://youtu.be/rJ48RqwHb8s?si=-DC5Van6ljYABurF）。

You can get an idea of what this could be like from this video taken in Kuala Lumpur (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WjOh9UtwK-w )and from this Greenway in Beijing which I regard as one of the greatest cycle-superhighways ever designed (https://youtu.be/rJ48RqwHb8s?si=-DC5Van6ljYABurF)

* LPT（輕量便攜式運輸）是由「Peacemaker Foundation」所創造的術語，指的是任何小巧輕便、可用手提或搬動的交通工具。例如：自行車、滑板、輪滑鞋、滑板車、電動單輪車（EUCs）、自平衡滑板車（Hoverboards）與賽格威（Segways）。

*LPT (Lightweight Portable Transport) is a term coined by the Peacemaker Foundation meaning any transport tool that is small and light enough to be carried or moved by hand. Examples are bikes, skateboards, rollerskates, scooters, electric wheels (Eucs),  self balancing foot scooters (Hoverboards) and Segways.
