You know those people who need to use the disabled scooters per se. I see a lot of them where I live and I do wonder what happens if their battery runs out.

[Mamyalynne]

Scooter stops.


Sorry JJ, naughty of me.

[Bobbisox1]

Plug in points JJ so I told

[woofgang]

no but that is the answer.

Presume they charge them every night and only take journeys within battery range. If it did stop you could call a taxi.

Just the same as if you were driving a car and ran out of petrol.You would call for assistance

[jennyjoan]

Dave - the driver couldn't get himself and his scooter into a taxi.

Danny who do you call for the assistance.

I was in my car a couple of months ago and this very large man on his scooter had obviously conked out and he was trailing himself and the scooter on some railings. Now I would have helped but he woulda been too big for me.

jj//Danny who do you call for the assistance.//
Depending on circumstance, anyone that could assist you.If not a member of a rescue service, e,g the AA, then a family member or a friend.

[woofgang]

imagine what it was like before mobile phones!

If a person can get on to a mobility scooter he can shuffle across in to a car with assistance if needed.

[Old_Geezer]

They call the AA, or walk home.
