Mobility Scooters

Annie I am certain that Galen uses one but she is the only GN I know who does.

Thank you Charley

Try Fish insurance, that’s the company we use for an electric wheelchair.

Thank you midgey, I saw .Fish when I was searching but had never heard of it

I have a small pavement model mobility scooter. Wonderful when going to exhibitions, it folds into my car and means I can get around. Also, when going out with g.children to zoos, parks, etc. As it is a pavement model (max speed 4 mph), no insurance is legally required.
If you have the larger, more powerful versions, that are designed to go on roads, then Yes, some insurance is needed and it counts as any other road vehicle.

The insurance is not a great deal of money but means you are covered for any accident.

You only need insurance for road scooter not the smaller ones that you often see in shopping centres etc. You can get insurance for the other types, its very reasonable and can cover things like theft and breakdown.

www.rica.org.uk/content/mobility offer a wealth of information .

A recall my Dad having a sort of breakdown insurance with his Annie, in case there was a battery or other malfunction when he was out. Try not to worry, enjoy it, could give you more freedom.
