Safe riding
Road safety is everyone’s responsibility. The choices you make while riding affect not only you, but all your fellow road users, as well. So let’s get it right!
Go to RideSafe AcademySafety begins with you
Always
wear a helmet to protect
your precious head.
Never
ride under the influence of
mind-altering substances.
Only
one person at a time per
vehicle – no twin-riding.
Ride with care
– the basics
Be sure to know the local rules of the road before you set off. Stick to the bike lanes or close to the side curb, and stay off pavements as well as roads with speeds over 50 km/h (30 mph). Be aware of surrounding traffic, especially at intersections.
Start off slowly while you get used to the accelerator and brakes. Oh, and put down your phone until you reach your destination.

Start off slow
New to e-scooters? Then start off slowly – cap the speed of the scooter with reduced-speed mode. Simply turn it on in the app before you set off.
