W.A.T.C.H. OUT! This two-wheeled “Carve Pro” scooter, sold for children as young as six-years-old, is marketed for use in “stunt” activities. However, despite such encouraged use, the manufacturer provides numerous warnings and cautions, including: “Do not make a short or sharp turn”; “do not ride on slippery or wet ground” and “do not use on uneven or unpaved road” or at “high speeds.” Further, although there are warnings to wear protective equipment, the packaging depicts children using these products without helmets or safety pads.
