Please be aware that the final selection and purchasing decision regarding the type of scooter to be used is the responsibility of the scooter user who is capable of making such a decision and his/her healthcare professional (i.e., medical doctor, physical therapist, etc.).

Below are some precautions, tips, and other safety considerations that will help the user become accustomed to operating the scooter safely.
