1. These types of wheelchairs are very limited for safe operation on anything but FLAT, LEVEL CONCRETE WITH MINIMAL CRACKS/HOLES
2. These chairs need to be on full power ALWAYS
3. The challenge is when the concrete slopes away left or right. The steeper the angle = more dangerous
4. There are no activated brakes, once you release the joy stick allowing the motors go to neutral / brakes, about 2-3 seconds
5. Just a HC curb cut slope can allow the chair to run out into traffic.
6 I have three chairs, this one is the most precarious
