What it’s like to ride the American Scooter Tinant

In bumper cars, you’re in the driver’s seat. You steer your car around the ride area, accelerate and dodge other vehicles. A few bumps are part of the fun, so the cars are protected all around by a rubber bumper. Unlike on a carousel, there’s no fixed track, so you choose your own route.

Music and lighting also create a lively atmosphere. In the evenings especially, people like to meet up here with friends and go for a few rides together.
