What do you think we can add to the following?
- Effective braking is accomplished by using both front and rear brakes together. Independent use of only the front or rear brake reduces stopping performance.
- Excessive brake application may cause either wheel to lock, reducing control of the Scooter.
- Ride very cautiously until you are used to the way the scooter handles.
- Take turns and corners slower and give yourself extra stopping distances.
- Test the brakes to get the feel of how they operate.
- When riding in wet or rainy conditions or on loose surfaces, the ability to manoeuvre and stop will be reduced. For your safety, use extreme caution when braking, accelerating or turning.
- Avoid road markings in wet weather, they can be extremely slippery.
- Always wear protective clothing.
- Be considerate of other road users. Check that you are not slowing down the traffic flow and let the traffic pass as soon as it's safe.
- Ride defensively.
- Park the Scooter on firm, level ground to prevent overturning.
