Even when you stop or you ride at a slow speed, the trike is unlikely to tip over. When you stop, you can safely put both feet on the ground such as to have a chitchat with a neighbor or just to enjoy the scene.
The option seat back that some tricycles have can be attached to make riding even more comfortable. The upright riding position which some trikes offer is great for the back and hands.
