Hover-1 INSTINCT H1-EGBR Operation Manual page 11

The rst rule in safe riding is to use common sense. The
Instinct is vulnerable; it cannot protect you in a crash,
against impact, or loss of control the way driving a car
can. The Instinct can tip over sideways or pitch you over
the front wheel. It moves faster than a standard bicycle. It
does not have bumpers or airbags as a car does.
This section is a guide of safe riding practices for on and
o -road operation. Make sure you are using your Instinct
properly.
Di erent localities and countries have di erent laws
governing riding on public roads, and you should check
with local o icials to ensure you are complying with these
laws.
Hover-1 is not liable for tickets or violations given to riders
who do not follow these regulations.
• For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC
or CE safety standards. In the event of an accident, a
helmet can protect you from serious injury and in some
cases, even death.
• Obey all local tra ic laws. Obey red and green lights,
one-way streets, stop signs, pedestrian crosswalks, etc.
• Ride with the tra ic, not against it.
• If riding with friends and/or multiple Instincts, ride in a
single le, straight line.
• Use the Instinct's bell to warn drivers and pedestrians of
your approach.
• Ride defensively; expect the unexpected.
• Give pedestrians the right-of-way.
• Do not ride too close to pedestrians and alert them if you
intend to pass them from behind.
• Slow down at all street intersections and look to the left
and right before crossing.
• Obey all tra ic signals.
