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.
