Here’s what Elmer has to say about scooter safety:
-
I put on all of my protective gear – my helmet, wrist guards, and knee and elbow pads. They sure are important if I fall.
-
Then I choose a safe place to use my scooter. I always ride my scooter on the sidewalk or paved off-road paths, and stay away from stairs and steps.
-
One thing is for sure… I stay away from roads and traffic.
-
I have to be careful and stop my scooter if there is someone walking on the path. I don’t want to hurt anyone.
-
I always ride my scooter in the daytime.
-
I stay away from sand, water, gravel, and dirt – and ride my scooter only on smooth surfaces.
Have a fun and safe time riding your scooter this summer!
