It is the complete responsibility of the Customer to ensure that any products purchased operate by all country, state, and local laws. The Customer assumes all liability and risk associated with the use of Personal Mobility Devices and holds Benzina Zero, its owners, and its employees free from any liability caused by their use.
Each state and territory in Australia maintains a different set of rules and regulations for the usage of PMDs and associated products, including the requirements for legal use and whether registration with the relevant local road traffic authority is necessary. It is the responsibility of Customers to ride with caution, wear a helmet and protective gear during use, and ensure compliance with local by-laws including requirements of use. Any information or representation provided by Benzina Zero is of a general nature and may vary between Users depending on individual circumstances. For more information, please check local laws before use.
Is the Customer responsible for knowing local laws relating to the use of Personal Mobility Devices?
By purchasing any product on the Benzina Zero website, the Customer warrants & confirms that they, and they alone, are aware of their local legislation in relation to using the items included in their purchase(s). The consequences of a Customer’s decision to purchase a Personal Mobility Device that may contradict or break their local legislation shall apply only to the Customer.
Benzina Zero may advise Customers of local legislations, but we do not dispense legal advice, nor do we endorse the breaking of any law, whether local, state, or federal in nature.
I’m buying a product for someone else. Who is responsible for ensuring that person(s) knows their local laws regarding the use of PMDs?
The individual(s) who purchased the product from Benzina Zero are responsible for ensuring that the ultimate owner of the product(s) is aware of all their local laws & legislation regarding the use of PMDs. Benzina Zero shall not accept returns or offer refunds for PMDs purchased as gifts that do not meet the local laws of the ultimate product owner’s residence.
I didn’t know PMDs were illegal in my state when I purchased from Benzina Zero. Can I return my purchase or get a refund?
The Customer assumes all responsibility for knowing & understanding all laws, rules, & regulations relating to the use of Personal Mobility Devices in their local government area or state. Benzina Zero will not offer any refunds or accept any product returns in the event the Customer purchased without being aware of local legislation in relation to use or ownership of a Personal Mobility Device unless that product is unopened, unused, in the same condition in which it left the Benzina Zero depot, and the product return occurs within 30 days of the product being purchased.
For more information on product returns, read the Benzina Zero Return Policy here.
My local PMD laws have changed since I purchased from Benzina Zero. Can I return my purchase or get a refund?
Benzina Zero does not accept return products or offer any refunds for products that have been outlawed by changing government regulations relating to use or ownership of a Personal Mobility Device unless that product is unopened, unused, in the same condition in which it left the Benzina Zero depot, and the product return occurs within 30 days of the product being purchased.
I have been fined for using a PMD that doesn’t meet my state’s local legislation. Am I entitled to compensation from Benzina Zero?
The Customer assumes all responsibility for the consequences of using a Personal Mobility Device that breaks or contradicts legislation in their local government area or state.
Benzina Zero does not and will not offer any form of compensation or offer a refund of any nature to Customers that have been issued fines, had their PMD confiscated, or any sort of legal proceeding taken against them as a result of using their products in contradiction of their local laws.

In no case shall Benzina Zero, its directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, interns, suppliers, service providers, or licensors be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind, including, without limitation, lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, loss of life, replacement costs, physical or mental injury or any similar damages, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, arising from use of any of the Service or any products procured using the Service, or for any other claim related in any way to use of the Service or any product, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of the Service or any content (or product) posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available via the Service, even if advised of their possibility.

SECTION 17 - SEVERABILITY
In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service. Such determination shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any other remaining provisions.
If, in the sole judgement of Benzina Zero, a Customer, User, or Third Party fails, or Benzina Zero suspects that a Customer, User, or Third Party has failed to comply with any term or provision of these Terms of Service, Benzina Zero also may terminate this agreement at any time without notice and the relevant Third Party will remain liable for all amounts due up to and including the date of termination; and/or accordingly may deny that Customer, User, or Third Party access to the Benzina Zero Service (or any part thereof).
SECTION 18 - TERMINATION
The obligations and liabilities of the parties incurred prior to the termination date shall survive the termination of this agreement for all purposes.
These Terms of Service are effective unless and until terminated by either the Customer, User, Third Party or Benzina Zero. A Customer, User, or Third Party may terminate these Terms of Service at any time by notifying Benzina Zero that you no longer wish to use its Services, or when a Customer, User, or Third Party ceases using the Benzina Zero site.
SECTION 19 - ENTIRE AGREEMENT
The failure of Benzina Zero to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
These Terms of Service and any policies or operating rules posted by Benzina Zero on this site or in respect to The Service constitutes the entire agreement and understanding between any Third Party and Benzina Zero and govern the use of the Service, superseding any prior or contemporaneous agreements, communications and proposals, whether oral or written, between any Third Party and Benzina Zero(including, but not limited to, any prior versions of the Terms of Service).
Any ambiguities in the interpretation of these Terms of Service shall not be construed against the drafting party.

SECTION 25 - THE BENZINA ZERO DEALERSHIP NETWORK
Benzina Zero has partnered with select vehicle dealerships across Australia to sell Benzina Zero products to their local areas. These dealerships stock a range of Benzina Zero products that can be test-ridden and purchased.
Customers may choose to purchase from those dealerships instead of purchasing from Benzina Zero directly. In doing so, those Customers enter into a purchase agreement with the dealership, rather than Benzina Zero. Any specifics about those purchases, including finance, licensing, warranty, registration costs, delivery timeframes, or roadworthy certificates must be discussed between the Customer and the Customer’s chosen dealership.
Is every Benzina Zero model available at every dealership for test rides?
Dealerships may have a selection of Benzina Zero models on the shop floor available for test rides. However, they are under no obligation to have every model available for test-rides. It is always best to contact your local dealership to check whether they have specific models available for test rides before visiting to avoid disappointment.
No compensation or recourse will be offered to the Customer in the event they visit a dealership that does not have a particular Benzina Zero product available for a test ride.
Is every Benzina Zero model available at every dealership to purchase?
Dealerships may pick and choose which Benzina Zero models they stock at their own discretion. As such, not every model will be available for purchase in every dealership. It is best to contact the dealership to discuss their stock levels with them. Benzina Zero can facilitate the introduction if required.
In the event a Customer wishes to purchase a Benzina Zero product from the dealership but that dealership does not have that model in stock, Benzina Zero will liaise with the dealership to transport the chosen product to that dealership for assembly.
I have an issue with a dealership’s conduct. Who should I contact?
Dealerships are entirely separate businesses to Benzina Zero. As such, any concerns, complaints, or suggestions as to how dealerships have conducted their business should be directed to the dealership directly.
Benzina Zero is not responsible for a dealership’s conduct, service level, grievance resolution process, training, or opinions.
Who is responsible for the delivery of warranty on products purchased from a dealership?
If the Customer purchases from a dealership, then that dealership is responsible for any and all warranty requests on the Benzina Zero product.
