Drunk Senior on Scooter Had Driving Ban, Faces Two Criminal Charges

Share:

A elderly man in Slovakia faces two criminal charges after police discovered he was riding an electric scooter while drunk — and under an existing driving ban. The incident came to light after the man fell from the scooter, prompting an investigation. Officers found he was intoxicated at the time and that he was legally prohibited from operating any vehicle. Slovak law treats riding electric scooters under the influence as a criminal offense, and violating a driving ban carries additional criminal liability. Police formally charged him with two separate criminal counts arising from the incident.
