Brother in law got a new mobility scooter earlier this year and it came with a Tax disk on it.

Now he automatically thinks he can drive on the main roads and not the pavements like most other users.

We have warned him about going on some of the busy roads because of the heavy traffic but he just points to the tax disc and says i am allowed to use it on the road.

He is in his 80s and uses most roads as he says the pavements are to bumpy.

An accident waiting to happen but does he care he has a Tax disk,

I always thought that it was for letting you cross from one end of the street to the other end, Does it actually mean that he can use it on main roads if so I think it is a poor decision by whoever makes the rules.

I will point out where we live is really good for those that use Mobility scooters and I think our local council has done a great job for this type of use.

It is only a small scooter not one of the larger ones that can be seen around.

Anyone have one or can comment on their use on roads.
