Vehicle MaintenanceDifficulty: 1/5
You are checking a powered wheelchair or mobility scooter before using it on a busy pavement. What is the MOST important speed-related check to make sure you use it safely and legally in pedestrian areas?
Explanation
The Highway Code Rule 39 states that powered wheelchairs and mobility scooters MUST NOT travel faster than 4 mph (6 km/h) on pavements or in pedestrian areas. As part of safe use and basic vehicle maintenance, you should ensure the speed limiter or control allows you to keep within this limit and adjust to walking pace around other pavement users.
