Electric scooters can reach speeds of up to 20 kph, and this is faster than walking, biking, or taking public transportation in most cases.

Electric scooters run on electricity, which means they do not emit any harmful gases or noise pollution. They also consume less energy than cars or motorcycles, which can help you save money on fuel and reduce your carbon footprint.

According to a study by the University of California, electric scooters can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50 percent as compared to cars, and about 69 percent, when compared to buses per passenger-mile traveled. In the said study it was also found that electric scooters can save users an estimated $1,000 per year in transportation costs.

Get an electric scooter that has safety features, such as a reliable braking system, a bright headlight and taillight, a loud horn or bell, and a sturdy frame.

• Wear a helmet:

It’s the most important tip for electric scooter riding safety. A helmet can protect your head from serious injuries in case of a fall or a collision.

* Don’t drink or take drugs before riding:

Never ride an electric scooter under the influence of alcohol or drugs. These can impair your judgment, reaction time, balance, and coordination, making you more prone to accidents and injuries.

* Don’t ride too fast:

You should always ride at a safe and comfortable speed when riding an electric scooter. Do not exceed the speed limit of your electric scooter or the road you are on. Slow down when approaching curves, intersections, bumps, or obstacles. Riding too fast can make you lose control of your electric scooter and increase the risk of crashes and injuries.

• Turn carefully:

You should always signal your intention to turn or change lanes when riding an electric scooter. Look over your shoulder before turning to check for any traffic behind you. You should also lean slightly into the direction of your turn and use both brakes to slow down smoothly. Turning too sharply or abruptly can cause you to skid or tip over.

• Make sure all your brake systems work:

Check your brakes before riding an electric scooter and make sure they are responsive and effective. Most electric scooters have two types of brakes: a hand brake controls the rear wheel and an electronic brake that controls the front wheel. Use both brakes together to stop safely and avoid locking up your wheels.
