What Is An Electric Mobility Scooter

Electric mobility scooters make short distance travel easier for someone in need of assistance. Independent travel and daily life become a little easier and enjoyable for the elderly or people with a condition that makes it difficult for them to walk or who may tire easily when walking. For people in need, this motorized scooter not only makes travel easy, it decreases their reliance on others and promotes the continuation of an independent lifestyle. These people may be suffering from the typical symptoms that affect the ability to walk due to the natural process of aging or from a variety of conditions that can make walking challenging and uncomfortable including Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis and Muscular Dystrophy. As long as the rider has some ability to walk a few steps and has adequate upper body strength and dexterity to operate and control the scooter, an electric mobility scooter can make all kinds of limited travel easy for those once limited to wheelchairs or dependent upon others.
