Probably not. Look at the controls. They're just pegs, not levers.

You wouldn't even get that thing out of the dealership until the front point would dig into the pavement and send you flying.

So somebody took a motorcycle and plastered sheet metal all over it....why? I think the design student just didnt want to try to model anything complicated, and invented a story for a box with wheels. :P

That's pretty much all Nonobject is. There's a "neckless bottle," a cell phone that's all holes and would obviously never possibly have a chance of actually being assembled, a footrest with a curved bottom so that you have to balance on it, an MP3 player that looks like a rock, a digital watch with a hole in the middle and no place whatsoever to even have a battery or gearing, and some other stupid "poo poo".

It's what you get when you give a senior design class a modeling program and ask them to go to town, with absolutely zero knowledge of how anything works, how anything is put together, or what makes anything work.
