  • What features would you want if you were designing a mobility scooter?

    In my MS Wire column today I report about a husband and wife who are trying to design the ultimate mobility scooter for people with MS.

    Do you use a scooter? If so, is there anything you’d change?

    If you don’t use one, do you really need one but have resisted it?

    BTW, there’s a link in my column to a survey the scooter designers are taking.

    I have quite an old Meyra (German built) scooter, the one thing that irritates me is bumping into things when parking it close to the walls in my garage so some sort of bumper would be high on my list. Of course a luxury would be a USB port for my phone- if I’m out I always worry about my phone going dead ( I live in a rural area). Of course carrying a power bank is the current solution.

    Hi Daniel,

    Thanks for your suggestions. I love the idea of a USB port!
