GENERAL SAFETY GUIDELINES & RESTRICTIONS
HELMET USE WHILE RIDING THE MINI SPORT GAS RACER™
Your state DMV, or the city or county where it will be used, may require that you use a helmet that
meets the federal Department of Transportation "DOT" requirements (like those used by motorcycle
riders) while riding the GAS CHOPPER SCOOTER. Other states or municipalities may require that a
helmet meet the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) helmet requirements (like those used
by human powered bike riders) while riding the GAS CHOPPER SCOOTER Even if your State or
municipality has no requirements concerning helmet use, the GAS CHOPPER SCOOTER should not
be used under any circumstances without properly wearing a helmet that meets either the DOT or
CPSC regulations. The helmet must have a label inside which indicates which regulation it meets. If you
are unsure contact DOT at www.nhtsa.gov (888-327-4236) or CPSC at www.cpsc.gov (800-638-2772).
