How do you drive a scooter?
Can anyone help me with how to drive a scooter? I got one from my husband and don't know how to drive it. It's a 49CC Yamaha and in SD, I don't need a motorcycle license to drive it.
Websites with references are preferred.
Thank you so much!
I can also drive a car and ride a bike. Please don't leave me answers that aren't constructive.

It's very easy. Basically, you just sit on it. Models are different - They will either have a pedal for acceleration (which acts just like a gas pedal) or you will twist the handle to accelerate (like a motorcycle). They don't go that fast, so just sit on and try it. Once you get going it's easy to balance, just like a bicycle. You will have handbrakes just like a bicycle also.
When you stop, put your feet down to balance the scooter, and then get off.
It's super-easy, just give it a try.

Do you know how to ride a bike? And what about a car? The scooter is in between.

I suggest if you need to ask how to ride one you get some lessons, nowhere near you do lessons? In the UK you need a compulsory basic training before you can ride on the road, or a driving license if its before a certain year.

It's like this... you put in the key in first, turn on the lights, hit the brake & yellow ignition button and you'll hear the engine turn on. Run in for 10-15 seconds and there you go. Make sure everything's working- turn signals, brakes, headlights, mirrors, etc.. Hope this helps!

Check with your town council or police.most
towns forbid any scooter under 150cc to be ridden on public streets.yes you would need insurance and a learners permit.

Turn the handles according to the direction in which you want to travel.
Jesus will take care of the rest.

put your feet up over the handles and lean back as far as possible and ask god to make it go
