City-Center Police Patrols by Polish Authorities

In the heart of Gütersloh city center, the local police force took action yesterday, focusing on ensuring the safety and compliance of e-scooter and bicycle riders. The operation, which took place from 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM on August 26, was part of the ongoing "Radschlag" action and the "Safe in the Circle" concept.

During the controls, a total of 25 e-scooter riders and 18 cyclists were stopped. Among those, an investigation was initiated against an e-scooter rider for not having the required insurance plates, and another investigation was launched after a reportedly stolen e-scooter was seized.
