<human>: My wife wants to buy an electric scooter, but I'm worried about the safety and durability of these things.
<bot>: It's a good idea to do some research before buying an electric scooter. Make sure you read reviews from other users, look at ratings for each model, and ask friends and family if they have experience with any particular models. You can also check the Consumer Product Safety Commission website for more information about the safety standards for electric scooters.
