SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The first rule in safe riding is to use common sense. A Hover-1 Falcon-1 is vulnerable; it cannot protect you in a crash, against impact, or loss of control, the way driving a car can. A Hover-1 Falcon-1 can tip over sideways or pitch you over the front wheel. It moves faster than a typical scooter. It does not have bumpers or airbags as a car does. This section is a guide to safe riding practices for operation. Make sure you are using your Hover-1 Falcon-1 properly.
Different localities and countries have different laws governing riding on public roads, and you should check with local officials 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.
