Maybe some chest and back armor as well depending on how fast your scooter goes.

One thing you missed is the carbon fiber backpacks. They reduce sliding distance on your back and can prevent the back of your head from touching the ground.. assuming your backpack isnt filled with a lot of hard objects. The most important of all safety gear is a 126db horn and practicing defensive driving. Its better to prevent crashing than it is to be prepared to crash. If you cant power slide your scooter around a right hand turn at 30+ mph.. practice it..thats the only way to stop very fast in a very short distance when a car pulls out in front of you. if you can power slide a right turn at 30+ mph.. you can turn a scooter sideways and lean back to stop in emergency situations. All of these on the list have saved my life multiple times. Good luck

I commute to work but a section of road has shut down indefinitely due to some chemical fire contamination. It's been down for 3 weeks. That section had bike/walk shared paths/lanes. I now have to commute through a section of Grass, dirt, gravel and mud. I only travel 25kmh max. One time I set my speed to max and used the road to keep up with traffic. Ride was way easier but scarier. Gone back down to 25kph and dirt/grass/mud but looking at options so I feel safer riding at speed. Thanks for the video

I see so many riders with Crocs and slides on! I always take my slides off and put on my sneakers!

PPE is always great idea ! Had my front end explode for too much power in the front end 12kw front motor.

Right! Just wear motorcycle boots! If you wear sneakers when you ride a motorcycle if you get in an accident that's the first thing you'll see on the ground is the person sneakers and most people usually get a broken heel because they put their feet down when going fast

All research on helmets done by colleges have the same results for scooters of all speeds. The impact points are most commonly the side, back, and top of the head. Having a motorcycle helmet with a hardended front and a soft back is not ideal. any motorcross helmet should be legit as long as its rated for multiple impact.. and careful with built in visors.. i know a guy that crashed a scooter at 40 mph and the visor did him in
