A video making the rounds on the web shows a rather unusual and dangerous scene: a young man on an electric scooter is traveling along none other than the Turin ring road, precisely at Borgaro. The video, which went viral on Facebook, sparked a heated debate on road safety and the appropriate use of light transport in urban contexts.
In the video you can clearly see the boy, apparently calm, walking along the emergency lane. His presence on the ring road is not only illegal but extremely risky, both for him and for motorists.
The episode immediately attracted the attention of the local authorities, who are now trying to identify the young protagonist of the audacious – or imprudent – undertaking. The authorities have launched an investigation to understand the circumstances that led to this dangerous behavior and are examining the images to gather useful details.
Road safety experts and social media users have expressed concern and amazement, many pointing to the fact highlights the need for greater education and regulation on the use of electric scooters, which are particularly widespread in Italian urban areas.
The video also sparked a wider debate about the risks associated with urban mobility and how Italian cities are dealing with the increase in light electric vehicles on their roads. While some online commentators are calling for stricter rules and information campaigns, others emphasize individual responsibility and the need to respect existing rules to ensure everyone’s safety.
