City people everywhere can be seen utilizing electric mobility rather than expensive cars or laborious bicycles. In fact, the scooters we used to buy for our children has been powered up as the children have grown up. Nevertheless, us older folks have a problem keeping up unless we race them on our electric tricycle.
Children have been riding skateboard style scooters both with and without powered mobility for decades. Sometime in the late Nineties the pivoting stand-alone scooter was introduced, but most people had difficulty learning how to ride those effectively. The next wave of genius came when someone put the rechargeable motor from the pivoting model onto the skateboard scooter their kids were riding, and a new hazardous means of transport was born.
Older people may need to sit as often as they stand when traveling. The standing pose is forced upon us with both traditional standing scooters, as well as their counterpart most commonly referred to as a Segway. The basic design involves only two wheels with an upright handle.
Even if the model is designed to fit a taller adult, it is still standing. Discomfort creates distractions just as dangerous as a cell phone or the loose dog down the street. Older people really cannot risk having an accident, especially since the tricycles are sometimes designed to go faster than scooters or their Segway counterpart.
Pedestrians are just as much of a hazard on the scooter roads as cars and trucks. In fact, scooters travel the same sidewalks as pedestrians and bicyclers alike, but at three to five times the speed. Accidents which cause grievous injuries are just as possible whether they involve automobiles, bicycles, other scooters, people, or stray pets.
Tricycles have solved the issue of standing since the traditional style includes a large, rounded seat positioned in the center of three wheels. There are models which include cloth or leather cushioned seats of varying size. This most certainly allows even an octogenarian many hours of comfortable travel.
Since we are all notorious thrill seekers, breaks are a required element of the tricycles we speed about on. Scooters have not always included much of a breaking system, and this limits the operator to being a rider instead of a driver. Since there is the welfare of pedestrians, as well as the well-being of the rider/driver at stake, it only makes sense that one have adequate breaking availability at eight miles per hour.
A horn is a basic standard safety feature as well, and can potentially be the most fun safety feature ever. Trumpet horns are the most common, but there are other styles available. Headlamp and rear running lights come standard, but the addition of any other lights for night driving can only improve the visibility of and for the driver.
Unfortunately, the one safety feature that cannot be bought is sense enough to hold the front wheel with both hands. Tricycles are generally stable when ridden properly, as it is based on a tripod structure. However, not every rider understands that their body makes part of the tripod, and without a foot on each pedal and a hand on each handle, the intended design is incomplete.
