RIDING HAZARD
WARNING
Prevent Injuries and Deaths
• Direct Adult Supervision Required
• Keep Children Within Safe Riding Areas
These areas must be:
- away from swimming pools and other
bodies of water to prevent drownings
- generally level to prevent tipovers
- away from steps, driveways, roads
and alleys.
Teach Safety Rules to Children
While children can quickly develop the skill necessary to
drive this vehicle, it is important to remember that their
judgment skills are still very immature. Unsupervised dri-
ving by children can lead to serious injury. Before children
use this vehicle, an adult should carefully evaluate the
driving area as well as the children's skill level and ability
to drive this vehicle safely. Children are not always able to
recognize or anticipate hazards, even when they have
been taught about them. THERE IS NO ACCEPTABLE
SUBSTITUTE FOR DIRECT ADULT SUPERVISION.
Teach appropriate safety rules to your child before
allowing operation of this vehicle. These rules should also
be reviewed with neighborhood children or other playmates
who want to drive this vehicle.
Riding Rules
Make sure children know and follow these rules for
safe driving:
1. Always sit on the seat.
2. Always wear shoes.
3. Only 1 (one) rider at a time. A child who is not sitting on
the seat or who is standing on the vehicle could fall off,
cause a tip-over or block the driver's view. A child could
be seriously injured.
4. Do not allow any child to drive the vehicle in the street
or near moving (motorized) vehicles.
5. Do not allow any child to drive near bodies of water
(such as pools or creeks), obstructions (such as furni-
ture, low tree limbs or play equipment), or drop-offs
(such as stairs or decks).
6. Do not allow any child to drive the vehicle in the dark.
A child could encounter unexpected obstacles and have
an accident. Operate the vehicle only in the daytime or
a well-lit area.
