How Are You Getting to School?

We live in the new brave world of constantly advancing technology. Segways, hoverboards, and scooters are now smarter and more technologically than my mom’s smartphone. And with the school back in sessions, you know kids will be comparing notes on their wish lists.

A new thing I learned this year is that the kids that not all kids get bus service to schools because they live to close (at least by the school district definition) yet it is still a hike to get from home to a middle or high school in our suburban town.

Alternative Transportation Solutions

Unless you can drive your children to school they have a few different ways to get there and most likely they will want to mix them up depending on the weather or an ever-changing teenage mood.

Walking

A perfect way to get exercise, get a daily dose of oxygen and listen to music

Ride a Bicycle

A good old bike is a great solution for anyone who likes getting to places fast, doesn’t like to get up early, and enjoys carrying a biking chain in a backpack. It is also an amazing way to exercise and get your blood pumping before spending hours in the classroom

Ride a Scooter

For those who don’t like getting early for a walk yet love getting to places fast, there is a hoover board, segway, and scooter option.

And before I go any further let me suggest you steer clear of the hoover board and a segway. While these two are great transportation options they are not easy to store on the school lot and are next to impossible to take with you to the school.

However, when it comes to scooters, they have every option possible to get your child when he needs to go and stay out of the way when not needed.

Speed

A Powerful 250W hub motor of Jetson Quest Electric Scooter will help you reach speeds up to 15 mph. And most electric scooters are easy to use – just step on, push off with your foot, and press down on the thumb throttle to engage the motor.

Premium lithium-ion battery will make sure your kid could go on for miles without recharging even if he forgot to plug it in a night before. Jetson Quest Electric Scooter has a range of up to 18 miles.

In addition to that, an LED display shows battery life, current speed, and more.

Portability

Scooters with the foldable design are the best. They are perfect for getting around and are easy to store. In an example of the Jetson Scooter, it only weighs 28 lbs, quick and easy to fold and can handle any rider weighing up to 220.5 lbs.

Lights, Tires, and Brakes

Let’s not forget about other important things that are super important when it comes to riding a scooter. You want to make sure your child is visible on the road and has the tires that can handle a rough turn. He also needs to be able to stop quickly.

Jetsons scooters come with disc brakes for maximum stopping power. They are also equipped with no flat, solid tires that are engineered to absorb shock. Its ultra-bright LED headlight and taillight will ensure that your rider is comfortable and safe on an evening road.

Proceed with Caution

Don’t forget about the safety of riding a scooter. Make sure your rider is 13 and older and knows how to control the scooter. Be certain that he will obey all state and local regulations regarding the use of this product.

Read and follow the product instructions including all safety precautions and use protective gear.
