partment of Transportation has not approved any tie down system for transportation
of a user while in a scooter in a moving vehicle of any type. The rider must be seat-
ed in a regular automotive seat and restrained by an approved automobile safety belt.

MUST be independently and properly restrained or stored in a separate compartment
so as to prevent it from causing injury in an accident.
