Our trikes CAN tip over. Practice in a level parking lot to learn their limits. It is fairly easy to put
the trike up on two wheels by turning sharply with some speed. If you get a wheel up, bring it
back down by steering back in your original direction of travel. After you have the feel for the
limits of stability of the trike, you will be able to anticipate the need to lean into sharp, fast corners.
When cargo trikes are loaded, they will be more stable than when unloaded.
