🚀 JOYOR Prime Electric Scooter Safety Guide: How to Avoid Common Accidents
Electric scooters (E-Scooters) have become a popular choice for short-distance urban travel in Europe due to their convenience, eco-friendliness, and efficiency. However, as usage increases, so do related accidents. As Europe's leading electric scooter brand, JOYOR Prime is committed to providing users with safe, high-performance mobility solutions. This guide combines European regulations and JOYOR product features to provide comprehensive safety advice.
🛡️ 1. Wear Safety Gear: Essential but Often Overlooked
JOYOR Prime reminds you: Many accident injuries can be significantly reduced with protective gear, but many people don't wear it because it's inconvenient. Essential equipment includes:
- 🪖 Helmet (Choose CE-certified bicycle or skateboard helmets)
- 🦵 Knee & elbow pads (Recommended for high-speed riding or beginners; JOYOR S-series is suitable for high-speed commuting)
- 🧤 Gloves (Anti-slip and prevents abrasion injuries, especially in cold weather)
- 👕 Reflective vest or bright-colored clothing (Required by law in many European countries for night riding)
📊 Data shows: EU traffic safety reports indicate that wearing a helmet can reduce head injury risk by 85%.
🔍 2. Pre-Ride Inspection: Essential Safety Check
JOYOR Prime recommends: Before each ride, spend 1 minute checking your JOYOR electric scooter:
- 🛑 Brake system (JOYOR dual brake systems - electronic + disc brakes for reliability)
- 🌀 Tire pressure (JOYOR F-series uses 10-inch pneumatic tires - maintain proper pressure)
- 💡 Lights & reflectors (All JOYOR models feature bright front/rear lights and side reflectors)
- 🔩 Screws & folding mechanism (JOYOR's aerospace-grade aluminum body ensures stability)
⚠️ Common accident causes: Brake failure, flat tires, loose components causing loss of control.
🚦 3. Comply with European Traffic Regulations
JOYOR Prime reminds you: Electric scooter regulations vary across European countries:
- 🇪🇺 Speed limits (Typically max 25km/h; JOYOR models feature adjustable speed modes)
- 🚷 Riding zones (Allowed on bike lanes in Germany; prohibited on sidewalks in parts of France)
- 🍺 No alcohol (Strict penalties in most EU countries for riding under influence)
