turning as they can be hit or get snagged by passing obstacles, or may come into
contact with the wheels.

Even though there is an adequate suspensions system on this vehicle there are
“washboard” or rough terrain conditions that will make you feel uncomfortable
and can even cause back injuries. “Posting” or riding in a crouched position will
often be required. Slow down and allow your flexed legs to absorb part of the
impact.
This vehicle is not designed for riding on roads or highways. (In most places it is an
illegal practice). Riding your vehicle on roads or highways could cause a collision to
occur with another vehicle.
The tires on this vehicle are not suited for paved road use. Also, this vehicle is
not equipped with a rear differential (rear wheels are always turning at the same
speed). For these reasons, pavement may seriously affect the handling and
control of the vehicle.
Riding on roads or soft shoulders may confuse other road users, especially if your
lights are on.
If you have to cross a road, the lead driver should get off his vehicle, then observe
and give directions to the other riders. The last person to cross , then assists
the lead driver to cross. Do not travel on sidewalks. They are designated for
pedestrian use.
Water can be a unique hazard. If it is too deep the vehicle may “float” and topple.
Check the water depth and current before you attempt to cross any water. Water
should not go above the footrest. Be wary of slippery surfaces such as rocks,
