Residents describe the situation in front of their terraced houses in Vienna's 22nd district as dangerous. Electric scooters from the food delivery company Foodora were traveling at high speed on a narrow sidewalk. Despite the ban: how the "Krone" ombudswoman was able to help.

The footpath in front of the housing estate is only around one and a half meters wide. Bicycles are prohibited in the entire alley. And that's a good thing, as the S. family describes: "If you turn into Anfanggasse on foot from our side streets, you have no chance of seeing any vehicles before you're already on the sidewalk."
