13) Tips for safe riding
It is important to feel comfortable
and relaxed when riding your
scooter. However avoid wearing
clothes which are too loose (ie:
unbuttoned jacket or scarf) which
may get caught in a passing object
or cause distraction while you are
riding.
Ensure you have a helmet which is
a snug fit, it should not move
around on your head and should
always be done up securely.
When riding, hold both
handlebars firmly at all
times. Avoid riding while
holding only one side of the
handlebar.
Wear comfortable flat soled
shoes only, never ride your
scooter in bare feet, jandels
or high heels.
NEVER attempt to talk on your cell
phone or read or send an SMS text
message while riding your scooter.
ALWAYS wear a helmet when
riding your scooter, even in
your own driveway or on
private property.
