A rider on a class 3 mobility scooter uses the pavement and then moves onto the road. What are the maximum speeds?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. 4 mph on the pavement and 8 mph on the road
- Step 1: Mobility scooters have a 4 mph limit on pavements. Step 2. Class 3 scooters may be used on the road and may go up to 8 mph there. Answer: 4 mph on the pavement and 8 mph on the road. Why not the others: 8 mph is not allowed on the pavement, the road limit is not also 4 mph, and 15 mph is too high.
