The Scooter Buddy.
A great boon to users of Mobility Scooters is the introduction of a
mobility scooter trailer that dismantles and fits in the boot of a
car.
Mobility scooters and powered wheelchairs in general have proven to
be of great benifit to handiccaped and partially disabled people for
quite a while now. Otherwise they would have previously be dependant
on others to push their wheelchair for them. With a powereed
wheelchair or scooter they are able to travel by themselves up to
distances of 25 miles at speeds of up tp 8 M.P.H A great improvement
to how things used to be.
One difficulty with these vehicles was if you needed to take them
with you when travelling distances in a car or similar vehicle. For
example if the person was going on holiday or travelling to see a
distant friend or relative. Some of these scooters are small and
lightweight and can easily be placed in the trunk of a car. However
the larger sizes are to big and heavy to be used in this way, so the
only previous way was by using a trailer to transport their mobility
scooter.
Not everyone has the space to store a regular trailer, and security
is always an issue with trailers also.
A new type of trailer has been developed that quickly and easily
dismantes in moments without the use of tools and can be carried in
the boot or trunk of even a small car such as a Citroen ax and
similar. These are available from www.mobilityscootertrailers.co.uk
Made of Aluminium these small,lightweight trailers can be stored
anywhere taking up little space, in a garage, under a bench or even
in a cupboard or in fact anywhere indoors, which eliminates the
security and storage worries associated with comventional trailer.
Capable of carrying up to 200 kg these trailers can also be used as a
conventional mini-trailer, whenever a small portable trailer is
required.
Mobility scooter carriers that fit on the towbars of Vehicles are
also available, but in most cases they are unsuitable because of the
limit of how much vertical weight the towbar can carry. Not a
problem on large vehicles like a motorhome or RV, but on a car they
are often not suitable. However a collapsible mobility scooter
trailer can be used to transport even the heaviest scooter behind
even the smallest car. A great boon disabled people who require more
freedom and ability to enjoy there lives.
