The invention relates to vehicles having at least one handlebar, especially to motorcycles. It turned out that during a frontal crash the handlebar of the motorcycle itself constitutes a threat for the cyclist because in case of such a frontal crash this handlebar can constitute a basically non-movable barrier for the cyclist and the risk is high that the abdomen of the cyclist hits this barrier. So, at least one weakening—or destruction device is provided. This weakening—or destruction device is able to be directly or indirectly triggered by a crash sensor system and is able to weaken or destroy the at least one handlebar or to weaken or destroy the connection of the at least one handlebar to the fork of the motorcycle when triggered.

A handle protection device configured for a personal mobility, which is mounted on an upper end portion of a steering shaft may include a handle member disposed with a grip portion at opposite sides of the handle member, includes a first protection member mounted on an external surface of the handle member between the grip portion and the steering shaft, a protection cover configured to enclose and accommodate the grip portion and one or more components provided on the grip portion and including a coupling end portion at a first end portion of the protection cover and detachably coupled to the first protection member and an opening through which a hand of a user enters and exits, and a second protection member fixed to a second end portion of the protection cover opposite to the coupling end portion.

A multifunctional hand guard for a vehicle with a handlebar, said guard having at least three functional modes. The multifunctional hand guard includes: (a) a main hand guard body structure; (b) a cut out cover (insert); and (c) an adjustable guard shield, as well as attachment mechanisms. The cover may be inserted or removed and the shield may be up, down or in between or it may be removed, depending on weather conditions and the desire of the user.

A motorcycle (1) includes a tail lamp (41), a rear covering (32), rear end components which are a license plate (44) and a license lamp (46), a rear stay (33), and a sensor (60). The tail lamp (41) emits light toward the rear side. The rear covering (32) is provided with the tail lamp (41). The rear end components are disposed more rearward than the rear covering (32). The rear stay (33) extends at least rearward from a connecting portion connected to the rear covering (32), and supports the rear end components. The sensor (60) for sensing an object rearward is at least partially received in an internal space (111) that is formed either in the rear covering (32) or in the rear stay (33).

A safety device and a safety method are usable with a motorcycle having a horn assembly and a hazard light assembly. The safety device includes a detection module and a hazard control module. The detection module may detect the activation of the horn assembly by an engagement of a horn switch of the horn assembly by a user and provide a trigger to activate the hazard control module. The hazard control module may place hazard lights of the hazard light assembly in an on state for a duration period in response to an activation of the horn assembly. The hazard control module may also automatically place the plurality of hazard lights in an off state at an end of the duration period.

A school children rescue vehicle is provided. The vehicle includes an electric mobility scooter assembly. The vehicle includes a protective shell configured to attach to the assembly. The protective shell includes a plurality of hardened flat panels configured to connect between themselves and form an overall 5-sided shaped enclosure and arranged to fit on top of and connect to the electric mobility scooter assembly and structured to provide projectile protection for personnel situated within the protective shell. The shell includes a plurality of viewing ports of bullet proof glass positionable within the hardened flat panels and configured to provide line of sight viewing for personnel inside the protective shell. The overall external dimensions of the protective shell are such that the vehicle can maneuver within tight enclosed spaces. The vehicle functions as a deterrent to school violence and as a rescue vehicle for an active shooter situation.

A hand protection device for a handlebar of a vehicle is provided. The hand protection device includes a protective bracket that can be rigidly connected to the handlebar of the vehicle, and an extension element that is movably arranged relative to the protective bracket.
