Driving Safety

Are scooters and mopeds safe on St. Thomas roads?

Scooters and mopeds are not recommended for most visitors. St. Thomas roads are steep, narrow, and winding, with heavy vehicle traffic and limited shoulders. Two-wheel vehicles offer little protection in a collision and can be difficult to control on inclines and in rain. If you do rent one, wear a helmet, avoid night riding, and stay off high-speed roads.
