SCOOTER SAFETY
IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
Wear a helmet
Make yourself easy to see
Know your limits
Your scooter can provide many years of service and pleasure, if you take responsibility for
your own safety and understand the challenges that you can meet on the road. There is
much that you can do to protect yourself when you ride. You will find many helpful
recommendations throughout this manual. Following are a few that we consider most
important.
Scooter safety equipment starts with a quality helmet. One of the most serious injuries that
can happen is a head injury. Always wear a properly approved helmet. You should also
wear suitable eye protection.
To make yourself more visible, wear bright reflective clothing, position yourself so other
drivers can see you, signal before turning or changing lanes, and use your horn when it will
help others notice you.
Ride within the boundaries of your own skill at all times. Knowing these limits and staying
within them will help you to avoid accidents.
