Self-Propelled Wheelchairs in South Australia

Self propelled or motorised wheelchairs (sometimes referred to as mobility scooters) are increasingly used in the community.

Self propelled wheelchairs provide a great benefit to individuals with physical disabilities or health conditions that inhibit their ability to walk, by assisting them to maintain an independent lifestyle through improved mobility.

Under the Road Rules, a self propelled wheelchair is classified as a pedestrian (and is not subject to registration and licensing requirements) provided it cannot travel at a speed greater than 10 km/h (on level ground), has an unladen weight not exceeding 110 kg, and because of the drivers physical condition the driver has a reasonable need to use a wheelchair.

In this case, the following conditions apply to the use of self propelled wheelchairs on public thoroughfares in South Australia.

* The wheelchair operator must observe all the same road rules as apply to pedestrians.

* The wheelchair must not travel on the road except where a footpath is not available or is being repaired, or the footpath is unsafe due to damage.

* Third Party Bodily Injury Insurance is automatically provided to the wheelchair operator by the Motor Accident Commission, free of charge. However, if the operator is seen to be more than 25% responsible in an accident they will be required to pay an excess of $300.

* It is recommended that the wheelchair operator contact an insurance company to arrange personal insurance cover for fire, theft, and any damage that they may cause to property.

To increase safety and assist other road users, it is recommended that the following precautions also be adopted by wheelchair operators.

* Be alert when crossing the road, use an open area to make you more visible to motorists, and look to see that there is a safe exit on the other side.

* If the wheelchair operator is forced to use the road, the wheelchair should keep as close to the left hand side of the road as possible.

* Watch out for cars turning into or reversing out of driveways.

* Do not assume that other road users have seen you and will give way.

* Increase your visibility by displaying a small yellow or orange flag on your wheelchair, and wearing light coloured clothing.

* If the wheelchair is used at night, the device should display a white light at the front and a red light at the rear. It is recommended that reflectors are also fitted to the rear of the wheelchair.

* Always travel up and down ramps and inclines as straight as possible to avoid tipping the wheelchair over.

* When travelling in congested areas, use the slowest speed possible to ensure you do not have an accident with someone or something.

* Do not assume that other pedestrians have heard your approach and are aware of your presence on the footpath.
