Driver requirements

This vehicle is intended for use only by an
operator 16 or older with a valid motor vehi-
cle license.

The driver must be able to place both feet
flat on the floorboard while seated upright
with his/her back against the seat back.

Do not drive after using drugs or alcohol.

Remove the ignition key when the vehicle is
not in use to prevent unauthorized use of the
machine.

Parents:
Many states have implemented new motor
vehicle licensing requirements for young driv-
ers. These requirements are in response to
the disproportionately high rate of crashes in-
volving youthful drivers. As with automobiles,
to promote safe driving behaviors, you should
supervise drivers and consider setting rules
and putting limits on how, when, and where
the Rhino can be used.
