After numerous violations, two out of four e-scooter providers are leaving the city. But demand remains high. Is there now a real threat of scooter chaos in Vienna? Here's what happens next.

Monday saw a bang in the city's rental scooter scene. Two out of four providers ceased trading. Because the provider Link by Superpedestrian had repeatedly breached the contractually agreed terms and conditions, the city cracked down and terminated the contract. The register of offenders was simply too long. Illegally parked scooters were not removed.
