USEFUL INFORMATION FOR PARENTS

Children are among the most vulnerable road user groups, not only because of

their lack of experience and practice, but also for the simple reason that they are

smaller and may therefore have difficulties overseeing things and may be easily

overlooked by other road users.

If you want your child to use his/her bicycle on the road, you should be willing

to invest time in road safety instruction and help him/her improve his/her riding

skills (a). Children are not as observant as adults, and you should therefore get

into the routine of checking the toy bicycle and performing adjustments and

maintenance as necessary. If you are in doubt or if you have any questions, con-

tact your SCOTT dealer.

Bear in mind that it is your responsibility to supervise your child on his/her first

rides (b) and do not overchallenge your child! Inform yourself about the traffic

rules in your country. They vary from country to country. For example, in Ger-

many, children must use the pavement until they are eight years old and they

are permitted to do so until the age of ten.

It is essential that your child has good control of his/her bicycle before riding on

public roads. As a first step in this direction we recommend that you give your

child a scooter or a walker (c) so that he/she can train his/her sense of balance.

This being accomplished you will need to make your child familiar with the

functioning of the brakes (d-f) and gears, if necessary, before you let him/her

sit on the bicycle. Find a place away from the road, ideally a backyard or park,

where you can practise braking and shifting gears with your child under your

supervision.

Once your child has progressed to a point where he/she can ride in traffic, teach

him/her how to cross kerbs and railway tracks, i.e. to cross these obstacles, if

possible, at right angle. Your child should also learn to look ahead and back for

any danger before taking this kind of obstacle.

Set a good example when it comes to wearing a cycling helmet and to riding on

cycle lanes. It is also advisable to let your child take part in road safety lessons

offered at schools or by local clubs and associations.

DANGER!

It is important to tell your child when he/she practises braking that in wet

conditions the brake performance is less effective and the tyre grip re-

duced and that they should therefore ride more slowly and brake more carefully.

DANGER!

Take care your child is wearing the helmet while cycling only. For example,

wearing the helmet at a park or playground can be hazardous; the helmet

can get caught on features or obstacles and result in strangulation by helmet

straps.

DANGER!

Children should not ride near precipices, staircases or swimming pools as

well as on paths used by automotive mobiles.
