Further safe-riding points
•
Be sure to signal clearly when making turns.
•
Braking can be extremely difficult on a wet road. Avoid hard braking, because the scooter could slide.
Apply the brakes slowly when stopping on a wet surface.
•
Slow down as you approach a corner or turn. Once you have completed a turn, accelerate slowly.
•
Be careful when passing parked cars. A driver might not see you and open a door in your path.
•
Railroad crossings, streetcar rails, iron plates on road construction sites, and manhole covers become
extremely slippery when wet. Slow down and cross them with caution. Keep the scooter upright, otherwise
it could slide out from under you.
•
The brake lining could get wet when you wash the scooter. After washing the scooter, check the brakes
before riding.
•
Always wear a helmet, gloves, trousers (tapered around the cuff and ankle so they do not flap), and a
bright colored jacket.
•
Do not carry too much luggage on the scooter. An overloaded scooter is unstable. Use a strong cord to
secure any luggage to the carrier. A loose load will affect the stability of the scooter and could divert
your attention from the road.
