I know there are a few companies who offer this but the premiums seem hefty…..when the scooter is indoors or on the owner property surely its coverted in the contents & if used outdoors its a bit like a bike …..again covered by contents as a bike would be…..so is it justa frightener that they tell you to get insurance on them because you feel pretty vulnerable to start with?

i have obtained a mobility scooter for my personnal use as i need to get around more, the top speed is 8mph. I am informed that the minimum speed should be at least 10mph to use it on the road 4mph on footpaths. How do people manage in rural districts where there are no such things as footpaths?

do you know where i can purchase a shopping trolley that goes onto the back of a mobility scooter with a free fitting…im in the uk…thanx

contact them direct,they may be able to help…link below

I live in the UK,the best place to find advice on this is to check the DVLA or Direct gov website.
A mobility scooter is exempt from tax but you still need to display a tax disc.The DVLA will issue you one free of charge and i’ve attached a link to all the relevant documents down below.

I dont have much of a relationship with my parents, especially my mother. This comes from their neglect as grandparents towards my son, whom I love more than anything. Recently my father has become ill and is now unable to walk great distances. I offered to buy him a scooter (mobility buggy) and he did not want one initially. Now he has agreed and it arrives tomorrow. I have a feeling that my mother wants to use it more than he does, which I suppose had to happen.
Anyway, I know from experience that my parents are liable to use this buggy then decide they do not want or need it. In the past they have sold or given away things like this that I have helped them out with once they tired of them.
In this instance (as the buggy is expensive) I do not want my parents to sell it or give it away. Hence, I am going to tell them that it is on loan to them from me until they decide they do not want it anymore. Is this wrong?

I’ve found over the years that the only reliable test for mine is simply trusting my instincts on it.Knowing how well a new one works and knowing how well my present one works tells me if it’s about time.Meters and load tests don’t tell the whole story on deep cycle batteries.

I get social security disability.

I get tired of seeing candy purple and blue ones and wondered if i could pimp a few mobility scooter rides

any body had similar problem with freewheel lever on mobility scooter which is stuck in drive position
