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).
