Pedestrians must always take priority on the road as this is where the majority of scooter accidents happen. Likewise, you should be prepared to yield to pedestrians if going up or down a slope on the pavement.

Also, make sure that your battery has sufficient charge and that the lights on your scooter are functioning properly. Taking the time to plan your route ahead is a good idea, also, as it allows you to avoid routes that are more likely to drain your battery more than other routes.
