Stand And Drive Cars - The Slide by Matthias Pinkert (GALLERY) [Edit]

Matthias Pinkert conceived this “city car” where the lone passenger and driver stand in an upright position. The concept vehicle called The Slide is meant for the crowded, chaotic urban environment where parking spaces are priceless, albeit temporary, possessions.

Needless to say, it is also a vehicle for short trips and individuals without a partner and a brood. I’d rather ride a bike.

Slide is a city car for one individual, in which you do not sit but stand. The low cross-section should be effective against the parking situations of tomorrow. Unnecessary empty rides of one individual in a car with two or four seats belongs to the past. Through an open design and the upright position during the ride, the user are able to communicate with the other participants of traffic in a special way. They are in an equal position of eye height with pedestrians and cyclists. (coroflot)

Is this practical? Possibly in a large city if someone doesn't want to walk and doesn't have to go far. Who wants to stand in the same position for more than 10 minutes or so? What about when it rains? What about safety? This doesn't look safe at all.
