Video shows electric scooter at almost 100 km/h on Madeira expressway

dnoticias.pt13 September 2026 at 13:58

A video is circulating on social media, namely on TikTok, showing an individual driving an electric scooter inside a tunnel on Madeira's expressway, apparently on the section between Seixal and São Vicente.

The images were recorded with an action camera mounted on the driver's own helmet, which allows viewing the experience from the perspective of the person driving the vehicle.

According to the person who shared the images, a speed close to 100 km/h was reached during the journey through the tunnel.

This value, if confirmed, is well above what is permitted by law for this type of vehicle and on this road, raising questions about the legality and safety of the situation.

Why this matters

Readers in the region are affected because this situation exposes a serious road safety risk on one of Madeira's main roads, also alerting to the need for enforcement and compliance with the rules for the circulation of light electric vehicles on regional roads.
