Technology allows us to spend less time in travel, or simply enjoy our free time by cruising on speeds much higher than those we are used to. Everything is developing towards faster and safer modes of transportation (and computers of course). These robotic legs may look stupid, but they're the first of their kind, and may take you for a 50 mile per hour run (not sure it'd go easy on ur ass tho...) after some more development. |

Why is it that it has a windshield(or whatever it's called) to protect your head, but nothing for the rest of your body? |

And some crazy person in Alaska (there seem to be quite a few) has gone one better - he is building his own mecha: |
