With school quickly coming to a close and summer fast approaching, exciting family vacations are just around the corner. Unfortunately, some family members are often left out of the fun due to mobility limitations and inability to travel with their current mobility scooter. For those who can easily get around with a scooter, but do not have a scooter that travels easily, a lightweight mobility scooter is the answer you have been looking for. Unlike regular, more heavy-duty mobility scooters, lightweight mobility scooters are great options for the avid traveler as they can be effortlessly transported anywhere, whether you are just heading to the grocery store or on an adventurous family vacation to Disney World.
