all Class 3 scooters it is not always safe or sensible to do so. You are responsible for your own
safety and that of other road users. The normal rules of the road apply and you must observe the
law about:
* Driving on the left side of the road. Never drive against the traffic.
* One way streets – Never drive against the traffic.
* Giving way where cars would give way (details in the Highway Code).
* Obeying traffic lights and all other road signals and instructions.
* Giving way to pedestrians on crossings.
Always remember your vehicle is not a car and is small and vulnerable – If you need to turn right
across traffic, try to get on to the footpath before the turn and then use a safe pedestrian crossing
or traffic light controlled crossing. Only try to turn right if you are completely sure it is safe to do so.
Do not rely only on your mirror. It may give a false impression of distance. Always give clear
indication of intention to turn left or right.
Remember – the car you can see when you look behind may appear a long way away, but it is
almost certainly moving faster than you are, often deceptively so. It could well be upon you before
you complete your manoeuvre. And it may not be able to stop in time. When passing a parked
vehicle take great care you are not moving into the path of a faster moving vehicle coming behind
you, or towards you. Always signal your intention to pull out.
In the event of a difficult or dangerous situation – Use your hazard lights – But do not drive with
them on unnecessarily.
