This is either drunk or intentionally destroying a service car

This incident is the latest in a series of peculiar traffic events in Zagreb this week. It follows a separate video that captured five young individuals, some on electric bikes and others on scooters, riding in the far-left traffic lane. Only the first and last riders in that group were seen wearing helmets.

Surely a service car

Commenters on the Facebook page "Prometne zgode i nezgode" (Traffic incidents and accidents) reacted with a mix of amusement and alarm. Some questioned the driver's sobriety or intent, while others made lighthearted remarks about the car brand. One user expressed frustration with the country's regulations, questioning why electric scooter riders, who pose a significant road hazard due to their small wheels, are not subject to stricter licensing requirements like mopeds.

As soon as someone buys a Škoda, everything is clear

The discussion also touched upon a past incident involving a 14-year-old who attempted to drive his electric scooter onto a highway, only to be stopped by toll booth operators. The article notes that commenting on the Vecernji List website requires user registration, adhering to Croatian law regarding electronic media.

I can't believe what this country allows. The first and major danger for electric scooter drivers is the small wheel diameter; any slightly larger asphalt damage will cause them to fall.
