FAQs

How do you end a beam scooter ride? ›

If your Beam includes a built-in lock, please ensure you lock your vehicle to a secure post. Park your vehicle and engage the kickstand. Simply place your foot lightly on one side of the kickstand and pull the vehicle towards you.

An advantage of using high-beam headlights is that they illuminate the road surface up to 350 to 400 feet in front of you. That's twice the distance as low beams. The long beam of light makes it easier to see and allows for longer reaction times when there's an obstacle in the road.

Generally, Beam e-scooters cost $1 to unlock and $0.45 per minute to hire.

This is why it is recommended that drivers look ahead 12 seconds while driving in the city, and 12 to 15 seconds on the highway. In the city, 12 seconds is about one city block, and on the highway 12 to 15 seconds is approximately one-quarter mile.

It is not illegal to drive with high beams on, but it is wise to dim them when you approach another vehicle from the front or rear or when you drive through a dimly lit neighborhood. It is illegal if you flash or use high beam headlights within 500 feet (0.15 km) of the oncoming vehicle (oncoming traffic).

In many cases, the high beams will still work when the regular headlights stop, but it's just not safe to drive around with your high beams potentially blinding other drivers.
