risks and safety in road traffic
The violation risks associated with the driving of e-scooters can be significantly minimized by the correct protective equipment. This includes wearing a helmet, a back protector and wearing gloves with wrist reinforcement and solid footwear. A tearproof jacket is also recommended to prevent injuries in the event of falls. Andreas Harb emphasizes that attention and vigilance in road traffic are of essential importance, especially since e-scooters are quiet and other road users can endanger. Alcohol is an absolute taboo.
The increase in accidents after the winter break is a well -known phenomenon. Driving with little experience, high speed and a shaky vehicle are factors that increase the risk. Caution is advised, especially at the beginning of the season, when the streets are full again.
