Can you ride an electric scooter in the rain?<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re going to use a scooter for commuting, then a big decision is whether that\u2019s on fair weather\u00a0days, or all days. If it\u2019s the latter, then clearly you don\u2019t want a scooter that packs in at the first\u00a0puddle or light shower!<\/p>\n

Personally, I\u2019m a fair weather rider, it\u2019s like playing golf for me \u2013 I\u2019m there\u00a0for enjoyment. Plus, some car drivers seem to think that you\u2019re fair game when it comes to water on the
\nroad. So I\u2019m steering clear. If there\u2019s major rain I\u2019m switching to the car or van thank you very much.<\/p>\n

Scooters on the market today have a wide range of claims when it comes to the wet. Some\u00a0manufacturers advise that you don\u2019t use them in the wet at all. Others claim a very high level of resistance to\u00a0water ingress.<\/p>\n

So, can you ride an electric scooter in the rain? The key here (if you\u2019re in Europe) is the IP rating. These Wiki tables<\/a> explain what\u00a0the various values mean.<\/p>\n
