The European Mobility Week was held from September 16 to 22 under the motto “Mobility for Everyone”, aiming to raise awareness about the importance of sustainable urban mobility. Each year, the European Commission invites cities and local communities to promote use of sustainable modes of transport, while this year’s theme emphasises ensuring transport accessibility for people of all ages, abilities and needs.
The central event in Zagreb took place on September 22 in Zrinjevac Park, where the Croatian Automobile Club (HAK) also participated with the e-scooter simulator.
Electric scooters as personal transportation means are becoming increasingly common due to their simplicity, practicality and accessibility, but at the same time, they pose challenges for road safety. For this reason, the Croatian Automobile Club introduced a new preventive-educational program called “Safe E-Scooter Riding”, implemented by automobile clubs in local communities. A key element of the education involves exercises on an e-scooter simulator, which is a completely safe system that, under controlled conditions and through various traffic scenarios, monitors and analyses speed, reaction distance, braking distance and driver behaviour in incident situations, accompanied by an interactive quiz on traffic rules and regulations.
