Transfer mobility scooter

Suppose you have a friend who has a mobility scooter, but he or she is planning to sell it. The mobility scooter is still in good condition and you want to take it over. It still has a valid mobility scooter insurance. Most mobility scooter insurances have a term of one year, from May to May. You wonder if you can take over the existing insurance of your friend. Can the current owner then put the current mobility scooter insurance in someone else's name? The answer is no. It is not possible to put your mobility scooter insurance in someone else's name. A mobility scooter insurance is personal. As a buyer of a mobility scooter, you should always take out your own mobility scooter insurance.

Do I need a new mobility scooter insurance?

When you have purchased a mobility scooter, then you are obliged to take out a mobility scooter insurance, even if the mobility scooter has no registration number. Your mobility scooter should at least be insured for WA, for damage that you cause to others in traffic with your mobility scooter. That obligation arises from the Motor Insurance Liability Act (WAM). After you have taken out an insurance policy, you will receive an insurance plate that you have to mount on the back of your mobility scooter.
