4.2.2.2 Distance between the parts
The distance between accessible moveable parts shall be either smaller than 5 mm or wider than 18 mm in
any position. This requirement does not apply to the wheels/wheel support system or the braking/rear brake
system, if provided.
4.2.2.3 Folding mechanism
Any folding mechanism shall be designed to fix the kick scooter for use in a simple, rigid and safe way. It shall
