Barcelona e-scooter 500 euro fine
Briefly

"In a nationwide crackdown on volatility and disruption caused by electric scooters, Barcelona has imposed a hefty 500 euro fine for anyone caught riding an e-scooter on the pavement, or without a helmet."
"Criminals would tear through the city at speeds of up to 25 mph and target innocent pedestrians, aiming to capture their mobile phones and make a quick getaway."
"E-scooters now dominate the daily commute, with nearly 45,000 journeys every single day taking place on the nippy vehicles."
"Adría Gomila, the main responsible for mobility in Barcelona justifies the decision, stating that if the scooters went above this speed they should be classed as motorcycles and will require a license."
