E-scooter checks in Moncalieri, 31 October–1 November 2026
Date of the event:
Over the weekend of 31 October and 1 November 2026, Moncalieri's local police (Polizia locale), together with other law-enforcement bodies, carry out targeted checks on the use of electric scooters across the municipality. The initiative is part of the expansion of the so-called "red zone" (zona rossa), an area under reinforced surveillance already covered by checks against drug dealing and in local businesses [1].
Checks and fines
Over the weekend, 50 e-scooter riders are checked. Of these, 36 are fined, for a total of 2,500 euros. The most frequent offences involve failure to wear a helmet, lack of insurance, and a missing identification plate. Several cases of banned passenger transport are also recorded [1].
The area involved
The checks focus mainly on the area between the Giardini Battistini, in the Borgo San Pietro district, and piazza Bengasi, on the border between Moncalieri and Turin [1].
