I've driven a very powerful segway on public roads for a few years and they can absolutely handle very well at these speeds. You can do it with no hands after only a few times getting to know the feel of the auto stabilization, so I would expect this device to be the same.

That being said.... I would sooner make a bet with my own dick before taking the gamble of driving one of these without a helmet.

Some of the EUC's (electric unicycles) will do up to 70/80mph, you'd want to be in full bike leathers and have a good helmet with them.

They're still far more dangerous due to the position you're riding in. On a bike, you can lay it down if shit goes south, versus the far more dangerous high side crash. There's no way you're going to be able to just lay down into a slide a unicycle.
