Here are some tips to help you stay safe on your electric scooter:
1. Always wear a helmet
Wearing a helmet can significantly reduce the risk of head injuries in case of an accident.
2. Keep both hands on the handlebar
The centre of gravity is much lower on an electric scooter so don't attempt a wave!
3. Stay visible
Wear bright or reflective clothing, especially at night and ensure that your escooter has working lights and reflectors.
4. Check before riding
Regularly check your brakes, escooter frame, and tire pressure to make sure they are working properly.
5. Avoid distractions
Do not use your phone or other electronic devices while riding, as it can distract you from the road.
6. Stay alert
Be aware of road hazards, such as potholes, gravel or debris, and be prepared to take evasive action if necessary.
Save these tips so you can help prevent accidents and ensure that you and others on the road are safe.

We share the road with many other riders and it's important to practice safe riding to reduce the chances of accidents. Wear safety gear and check your escooter before each ride. Have fun and ride safe!
