Disabled Motor Scooters

Disabled scooters are often purpose-built or modified to meet the needs of individual users, but which is best for you — a wheelchair or a disabled scooter?

Power wheelchairs are not covered by most medical insurance companies.

Disabled mobility scooters are covered by many insurance companies.

Wheelchairs can be uncomfortable if you are sitting in one all day.

Disabled mobility scooters can have seats specially designed for individual users, as both comfort and utilization requirements need to be considered. On most disabled scooters you can choose: seat covering, extra padding, lumbar supports, and powered height adjustments. Armrests can also be added, removed or changed.

Wheelchairs need someone constantly available to push you or you need to have a lot of physical strength in the upper body to propel the wheels by hand.

Disabled mobility scooters do not require any special level of strength in the user and if you’re able to sit, you can just get on your scooter and whizz off. Disabled scooters are usually steered through handlebars, with thumb controls or levers which let you control speed and direction. Depending on your individual circumstances, you can choose alternative steering systems such as joysticks and loop handles. They run off a 12 volt battery which you can recharge easily in any standard outlet. The normal range for each charge is about 25 miles and the maximum speed is about 5 mph.
