A scooter is a vehicle that consists of a platform for legs, wheels and a steering wheel for steering. Scooters can be of different sizes and designs, but they are usually designed to travel short distances in urban conditions. Scooters can be both children's and adults, and can be used both for entertainment and for commuting to work or school. There are also electric scooters that run on batteries and can reach speeds of up to 25 km/h.
