Millions of no-car mothers have no choice but to push baby/ies and shopping up hills and/or over long distances.
I visualise a clip-on rear fifth wheel, driven by a snap-in battery-drill, to help them.
A foot-lever would control it.
Or adapt the drive-units from battery-powered cars for
children.
Priorpark's link as a link.

It would need an ignition key tied to a cord that goes around mom's wrist, in case of run away stroller, the cord pulls the key out and stroller stops ala jet ski. |

Electric power for fairly light transport IS severely underutilized. |
|

Forward speed would be say 5kph and downhill/runaway speed would be the same by feedback. The cord wouLd give confidence though. Good thinking. |

Fer gawd's sake stop laughing. This is serious. All jokesters are hereby sentenced to pushing three kids 3,2, and 1 plus a load of groceries up a kilometer of rising, even gently rising, road. |

I'm with rayfo. i've got 2 under 2 and now that buggies are more often the all-terrain type i think there is lots of room for the motor, battery etc. Have a look at the link to see the quality of motor available on electric bikes.
