A controlling device includes a storage device configured to store predetermined information about durability of a component of a man-powered vehicle, and a controller configured to control an indicator based on the predetermined information.

The embodiments show an efficient, flexible, durable, lightweight and portable (12) electromechanical apparatus (12) that a cyclist can easily and safely operate. The design allows for the remote positioning of a visible elongated object, (12) safety sleeve/arm (12), from a secured vertical stowed position, to a secured horizontal active position without stopping during the ride. The elongated, aerodynamically shaped (12) safety sleeve (12) will have (12) LED strip lights (12) along the trailing edge, along with a (12) wing tip light (12) at the end of the member. Also included are reflective materials at both ends and on the leading edge of the (12) safety sleeve (12). The purpose of a (12) safety sleeve/arm (12) in the active horizontal position is to provide oncoming motorists with a dimensional frame of reference to clear the pedal vehicle when passing. Because of the size and shape of the lighted safety member, a motorist will receive the early detection needed, allowing them time to maneuver their vehicle around the cyclist. Thus, providing adequate clearance between the cyclist and motorist when passing, which will help them to comply with the 3 foot rule enacted in 33 states in the USA.

An electric scooter includes: a scooter body; a front fork pivotally arranged on a front side of the scooter body; a front wheel mounted on the front fork; a rear wheel arranged on a rear side of the scooter body; a handlebar including a crossbar and a riser, the crossbar being arranged at an upper end of the riser, and a lower end of the riser being coupled to the front fork; and a left steering light and a right steering light mounted on at least one of the scooter body, the front fork or the handlebar.

The present disclosure relates to an apparatus and method for performing generation of driving information and driver-specific start control for a two-wheeled vehicle on the basis of biometric recognition. Specifically, the present disclosure relates to an apparatus and method for controlling start of a two-wheeled vehicle limitedly to a driver identified on the basis of biometric recognition and generating driving information of the identified driver in relation to sudden turns, sudden acceleration, sudden stops, impact occurrence, speed limit violation, and the like while driving.

A bicycle safety enhancement device includes an elongated member having a distal portion mountable to a bicycle handlebar. A proximity sensor is coupled to a proximal portion of the elongated member and is arranged so that when the elongated member is mounted to a handlebar of a bicycle being ridden by a cyclist, the ultrasonic sensor detects objects adjacent to and/or behind the bicycle and which come within a prescribed distance of the bicycle. An illumination source is coupled to the proximal portion of the elongated member. The illumination source provides a visible warning signal directed toward the detected object when the elongated member is mounted to the handlebar of the bicycle. A camera is coupled to the proximal portion of the elongated member and is arranged to capture images of the detected object as the detected object passes in front of the bicycle being ridden by the cyclist.
