In the pulsating capital of Vienna, a security eye was thrown on e-scooter traffic on June 26, 2025. As part of the traffic focus control of the Vienna State Police Directorate, under the roof of the "Vienna rolls safely" campaign, more than 450 advertisements were filed. The authorities in particular had their sights on the users of e-scooters and e-scooters, but also drivers did not get away. As 5min , 225 advertisements were noted for exceeding speeds, and almost 50 of them concern e-scooter.

Especially among the e-scooter drivers, things got down to business: Four drivers accelerated their scooters at speeds between 41 and 47 km/h, while a top speed of 25 km/h is allowed. A total of 104 organ mandates were granted, including 35 for e-scooter and e-scooter drivers. Alcohol and addictive substances also played a role with six ads, four of which went against e-scooter drivers. In addition, driver's licenses and license plates were taken away, which shows that no fun is understood here.

Enlightenment by information material

The Vienna police focus on a preventive approach with the “Vienna rolls safely” initiative to increase traffic safety. Among other things, information brochures are distributed that contain clear rules of conduct for the use of electrical scooters. Technical requirements for the legal use are also explained how "https://www.polizei.gv.at/wien/wien_rollt_icherungen/"> police Vienna can be found on the page of the

violations and security measures

  • The most common violations during controls are:
  • drive on walking stations
  • taking several people on an e-scooter
  • disregard for light signals
  • drive against one -way streets

In addition, it is important to mention that children under the age of twelve have to wear a bicycle helmet when driving.
