Is it necessary to have insurance if one owns a mobility scooter, Is it compulsary or just advisable to have it?
Hi just been reding up on this question for my dad. At this moment is not compulsory to have 3rd party insurance for a mobility scooter. I think however it would be very advisable to have such an insurance in case the driver has an accident caused by them, for example on a crowded pavement. Its worth a check with the house insurance to see if it covers this.
I just think its too nice to waste just sitting in the garage when someone else could use it for a better quality of life,, I have tried free Craigs list and no hits at all, is there somewhere else free for people who are really needing this ,thanks,,

Electric Mobility Scooters
As a follow up to my last post on handicap scooters I want to take the concept a little further by looking more specifically at electric mobility scooters and what you should expect from them should you be considering the purchase of one when you have not owned one before.
There are several things to think about but the most important from an operating point of view is the way they are powered. Electric mobility scooters are fitted with batteries that provide the power that enables them to move around and those batteries are rechargeable and therefore need to be kept in a healthy state of charge at all times.
Now, its easy to come in after a day out and park your electric mobility scooter in its usual place and be too tired to be bothered to plug it in so that it can recharge after the day’s use. This is a potential major problem, because if you forget to do this and then leave it, when you come to use it again, the chances are that it will leave you stranded somewhere being out of charge! Sure, it might get you all the way to the shops, but if it didn’t have a full charge to begin with, then its already depleted store f electricity will dwindle fast and call its ability to make your entire return journey into question.
