Tips For Safely Turning Your E-Scooter

Riding an e-scooter is a fantastic way to explore Cape Canaveral, FL. As safety is our top priority at Orange Kik, we've put together these valuable tips to help you turn your e-scooter safely:

  • Slow Down Before Turning: Reduce your speed before making a turn to maintain better control and stability.
  • Signal Your Intentions: Use hand signals to indicate your turns to fellow riders and pedestrians, promoting safety on the road.
  • Check Your Surroundings: Always check for oncoming traffic, pedestrians, or obstacles before initiating a turn.
  • Wide Turns for Stability: For better balance, make wider turns rather than sharp ones, especially if you're new to e-scooters.
  • Avoid Sudden Turns: Abrupt turns can lead to accidents. Make gradual turns, especially when navigating tight corners.
  • Lean Gently: Lean your body slightly in the direction of the turn to assist with balance and control.
  • Brake Judiciously: Moderate your speed before the turn and use the brakes smoothly if needed during the turn.
  • Stay Alert: Keep an eye on your surroundings and be prepared to react to any unexpected situations.
  • Use Dedicated Bike Lanes: Whenever possible, use dedicated bike lanes or pathways for safer turns.
  • Practice Makes Perfect: If you're new to e-scooters, practice turning in a safe and open area before hitting the roads.

At Orange Kik, we're committed to your safety and enjoyment while riding our e-scooters. Have a great time exploring Cape Canaveral, FL, and remember these tips for a safe and thrilling e-scooter experience!
