Safety
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Mobility scooters are a convenient and safe method of transporting disabled people. However, as with all vehicles they can be a cause of accidents if operators are not cautious or do not follow safety tips. Here are some essential points to consider when using mobility scooters:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The first thing you must do is familiarize yourself with the device and its controls. You must also know how to turn off and on your scooter. Read the user's manual for your model to find out more about safety features.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Pay attention to your surroundings is another important factor. You should never ride your scooter on busy intersections or streets and it's best to stay on sidewalks when feasible. It is also important to check your scooter frequently for damage, wear, and brake or tire problems.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
It's also important to keep in mind that many scooters can reach speeds of up to 18 miles per hour, which means you will need to be aware of pedestrians and traffic. It's best to stick with an easier speed when driving on sidewalks and other areas that are crowded, particularly in the beginning when you're just learning about the scooter.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
You should always have a spare battery. This can come in handy if your battery dies while you are on the move. A replacement battery is usually easy to install, and it will allow you to travel without a pause.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Another useful tip is to always call a business or event venue before you visit them with your scooter. This will make sure that they are prepared for your visit and save you from any unpleasant unexpected issues. For example, some older buildings might not have built-in accessibility features, or the elevator or lift could be too short to accommodate the size of a scooter. In these instances you might think about renting the scooter lift.
