Step 1: Find a scooter that is right for you. It may be used it may be new, but make sure make and model you select passes a proper security inspection. If you are in the process of buying from an independent seller, be sure to get the scooter checked out by a licensed professional before agreeing on a purchase. You will also need to make a decision as to what size scooter you will be interested in.Step 2: Register your scooter. Don’t worry, this is not nearly the monetary hassle required to register cars. If you purchase your scooter from a full-service dealer, there is a reasonable chance registration can be handled on site, or at least get the process started, at no additional cost. When registering, be sure to ask if there is a prerequisite license necessary to ride it in that state. If so, you can take care of if the license and registration process in one clean trip.Step 3: Insure your scooter. Insurance may not be required, it varies by state, but if it is you will be legally obligated to go through the process. If you are driving a scooter as an auxiliary vehicle to your car, you can simply contact your insurance company and notify them that you would like to add a scooter to the policy. If a scooter is your only current means of transportation, you will need to file the necessary paperwork.Step 4: Whether a license is required or not, we suggest completely a safety course regardless. The Motorcycle Safety Foundation’s Rider Course and Scooter School both come highly recommended, as scooters and motorcycles require similar skill sets. Not only will a course boost your confidence in regards to scooter proficiency, it may also provide financial benefits by lowering insurance premiums.Congrats! After the completion of these 4 simple steps, you are a fully equipped scooter operator ready for the thrill and convenience of 2-wheeled motorized transportation.
