E-scooters have very rapidly become a popular mode of transportation and are expected to maintain their appeal in the years ahead. However, the use of e-scooters can be dangerous, first and foremost for the e-scooter user, but also for other road users. Promoting awareness about safety rules is therefore crucial for accident prevention. This is what this video, available in English, Bulgarian, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Maltese, Romanian, Slovenian and Swedish, does. As the rules governing e-scooters vary across Europe, the video is accompanied by informative factsheets detailing national traffic regulations specific to each respective country (Austria, Bulgaria, Finland, Hungary, Italy, Malta, Romania, Slovenia, Sweden and Switzerland).
Together, these resources aim to equip e-scooter riders with essential information, fostering safer and more responsible riding practices across Europe.
