I hope you like fire, because this essay may or may not catch. There is a large amount of people who say that they should be banned, but there are just a little less people saying that they disagree and that they should not be banned.

If they are not banned, then people will run the risk of it overheating the lithium ion battery, which in turn could cause the hover board to catch fire and could then allow the battery to explode. Colleges are starting to ban the self-balancing electronic scooter, due to risk of falls and collisions and in some cases fires. The fires are caused by a faulty or cheap battery used in the scooters. The batteries are science experiments sometimes …show more content…
The government is still looking into them, trying to figure out why they keep catching fire and crashing. They aren’t one hundred percent sure that they will fully figure out these devices, but they published that they are officially looking into solving the problems with them. The government has not yet let out any information on this subject, due to all of the private companies, private research studies. Some companies are presently trying to sue other companies for stealing their idea for this product.
Some colleges are trying to resolve the issue themselves. They are creating research teams and having them try to figure them out. For example, Ohio State University has told their students through an email that they can have hover boards on the college’s campus only if they have a seal saying that the board meets up with the required safety features. Students at other colleges who are not trying this are angry at the choices of the college and are protesting upon the issue. They were told to leave their hover boards at home after the holidays.
In conclusion, there are close to an equal amount of pros than cons. But it’s leaning in the “keeping it legal” favor. People will try to controvert this, but their arguments are null and void. Due to this information and research, I choose to go pro and keep these hover boards
