Now the government is getting tough on hoverboard makers. And you have heard about baseball fans visiting every stadium in the country. Well meet the guys who are trying to do the same thing but with our National Parks. ,,, and fast. The government says its concerned that hoverboar a fire risk, and hoverboard makers may have to go in a new direction fast. The government is concerned that hoverboards in use are posing a fire risk and its threatening to stop the sales of those boards that dont meet new requirements. Consumerwatch reporter julie watts explains that. You never think, oh, that might happen to us. Reporter allyah says her sisters hoverboard was anything but fun. Last december, it exploded and caught fire inside the familys brentwood home. My mom was like we were never getting any of these ever again. And now after more than 50 similar incidents and 24 states, the government is putting on the brakes. In a letter today the manufacturers and sellers, the Consumer ProductSafety Commission warned of a, quote, unreasonable risk of injuries and death and said, all boards must now comply with new Safety Standards established by underwriters laboratories, specifically to address the fire risk. It also warned of recalls and product seizures if companies dont comply. So what about the boards already on the streets . Well, the agency told us it doesnt believe any socalled selfbalancing scooters now in use meet the new Safety Standards. And the agency says consumers should stop riding them immediately and ask for refunds. Now, hoverboards have been on shaky ground for a while.

Reporter this week San Francisco state became the latest school to ban the scooters. Last month, amazon and overstock stopped selling them. And they have been banned by many major airlines. If companies dont comply with the changes, hoverboards may soon be grounded for good.

And todays action only addresses the fire risk. Cpsc says the boards also pose an injury risk. Not just to the guys riding em. The people standing on the sidewalk like the person said there. And i have seen that up close a couple of times. In terms in terms of the fire risk they expect to have new boards comply to the new standards on the market later this year. Thank you.
