No training is required. Although the company offers lessons, they are not required before hopping on one of the two-wheelers, which top out at 30 miles-per-hour. This level of ease has turned outer-borough traffic into a high-stakes road test.Revel is now facing a growing number of personal injury lawsuits. In one lawsuit, a bicyclist claims he suffered a broken ankle in a collision with a Revel rider near York and Gold Street in Downtown Brooklyn. The suit claims Revel \u201cwas vicariously liable for the reckless, careless and negligent acts of its driver.\u201d In another lawsuit, the Revel rider claims that a moped locked up on him mid-ride, causing a crash that left him with two fractures in his leg.Revel provides up to $50,000 in liability insurance to users if they are involved in a crash. But that insurance is only available if users comply with all of Revel\u2019s rules and regulations, and only if they don\u2019t have their own motor vehicle insurance, which would be used as the primary insurance instead.Contact Our New York Revel Accident AttorneysIf you have been injured in an accident involving a Revel moped in New York City, you need to immediately contact an experienced New York City Revel moped accident attorney to protect your legal rights and get you the full compensation that you deserve.
