Micromobility Safety

Safety Education

Before riding, make sure to check for any damage, which includes examining the handlebars, brakes, throttle, bell, lights, tires, cables and frame.
Always wear a bicycle helmet.
See and be seen - wear proper gear when riding at night. Assume vehicle drivers and pedestrians do not see you, and ride with caution.
Use caution when riding with headphones on. Keep volume low to be aware of your surroundings.
Use the bell/horn to alert others.
Do not make abrupt, unpredictable movements.
Beware of obstacles. Slow down and lean back when you have to ride over bumps.
Always keep both hands on the handlebars and keep items off the handlebars.
Never ride under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
Only one person per e-scooter; additional riders can increase the risk and severity of collisions.

Always be present when charging devices using lithium-ion batteries. Never charge them while sleeping.
Only use the charger that came with your device.
Only use an approved replacement battery pack.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for proper charging and unplug the device when done.
Never throw lithium batteries into the trash or general recycling. Instead, take them to your local battery recycler or hazardous waste collection center.
