Hazard: The plastic parts of the handles contain DEHP, DIBP and DINP (measured values up to 9.71%, 0.32% and 0.36% by weight, respectively). These phthalates may harm the health of children, possibly causing damage to their reproductive system and liver. Furthermore, the toy reaches a too high speed (measured values: up to 10.36 km/h) and has an insufficient braking capacity, which creates a risk of an accident.
