Mobility Scooter Reviews is a
great site to check out the testimonials and reviews of owners of scooters who
can give first-hand accounts of their experiences using a motorized scooter.
They offer both information and valuable reviews. Are you thinking of traveling
by transit bus with your mobility scooter? There are a few facts you need to
know.
Is your
scooter the right size? There are limitations on how big and wide your mobility
scooter can be to fit on the bus. It is also your responsibility to ensure your
mobility scooter is properly secured when you enter the bus.
Use tie-down
straps to keep your mobility scooter from flying through the bus when the
brakes are suddenly applied. You can ask the bus driver to strap down the
scooter. Entering and exiting the ramp to the bus is where most accidents
occur.
As with any other business, you
have to ensure you have the right product with the right warranty and refund
policy when things go wrong. Beware of mobility scooter store refund policies.
An elderly man wrote of a horrible experience he had. He had bought his
eighty-year-old wife a mobility scooter for Christmas. She had dreamed of
riding the scooter on Christmas Day on the waterfront. She died a day before
Christmas. The husband was devastated. When he tried to return the scooter a
day later to the store, they denied him a refund. Their response was plain and
simple; no refunds, period.
