Officers from Salzburg police stopped a 15-year-old girl who was riding an electric scooter despite having consumed intoxicating substances. The check of the teenager revealed signs of drug consumption.

The e-scooter operator was suspected of having participated in road traffic under the influence of narcotics. The officers subsequently initiated proceedings on suspicion of operating a vehicle under drug influence.

The incident again demonstrates that minors are increasingly appearing in connection with drugs in road traffic. The authorities emphasise that the consumption of intoxicating substances and participation in traffic – even with e-scooters – can have serious legal consequences.
