A dual-footboard scooter in a tricycle format, the front wheel of the scooter being coupled to a steering post passing through a steering column to join a steering handle provided with a hand brake operatively coupled to the front wheel. A pair of parallel footboards are attached at their front ends to a bifurcated frame extending rearwardly from the steering column. Secured to the underside of each footboard is a rear end wheel behind which is a skid brake adapted to engage the ground only when the footboard is upwardly tilted. In operating the scooter, the rider grasps the steering handle, one foot then resting on either one of the footboards, the other foot extending through the space between the footboards to make pushing contact with the ground to propel the scooter forward. Should the scooter jump in the course of travel and in doing so raise the front wheel above ground and cause the footboards to become upwardly inclined, the scooter then seeks to swing backward about the rear wheels and thereby endanger the rider. The action is avoided by the rear skid brakes which then engage the ground to cause the scooter to swing forward to return the front wheel to the ground.
