Hirer Safety Information
- Carrying or leading a pet while you are on your scooter would also present major safety risks.
- Overloading your scooter with shopping or other goods can also make the vehicle unstable.
- Bags hanging from the handlebars will also make the scooter more difficult to control.
- Not turning the scooter off when you get on or off is dangerous – controls can easily be knocked by your body or catch on clothing; this can cause a serious collision to you, and other people or property.
- Leaning forward and reaching to put items into your scooter basket on the tiller is also dangerous. If the scooter is turned on again, you can knock the controls and move the scooter forward.
- A tiller that is too close to your stomach can hinder steering, knock controls and cause collisions.
- Having the speed control on full, stopping (to have a chat or look at something in a shop) and then moving off, not realising the scooter is on full power, can cause collisions.
