9.  Before using the SEGWAY, I was informed about the functionality and the safety rules. In particular, the following safety rules must be observed:

Hands-free or one-handed driving is expressly prohibited. The exception to this is the hand signal when turning.

h.  Only one driver is allowed per vehicle. It is forbidden to take other people with you, especially children.

i.  The instructions of the operator/lessor or his employees must always be followed. Ignoring the instructions may result in the termination of the journey. In this case there will be no refund of participation or rental fees. The same applies in case of suspected alcohol or drug influence.
