E-scooters in Carinthia
In Carinthia, Section 68a StVO also forms the uniform legal framework. On site, cycle paths, traffic signs and temporary changes are important.
Classification
Federal rules first, local guidance second
Power up to 600 watts, design speed up to 25 km/h, helmet requirement for those under 16 years of age and the prescribed equipment apply throughout Austria. The federal state does not replace these requirements with its own e-scooter regulations.
However, local traffic signs, cycle paths, pedestrian zones and temporary changes are crucial for a specific route. The capital city guide brings together the appropriate municipal entry point.

Check these three levels
- 01
