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

SAPO Notícias13 September 2026 at 14:58

A video is circulating on social media, particularly on TikTok, showing an individual riding an electric scooter inside a tunnel on the Madeira expressway, apparently on the section between Seixal and São Vicente. The footage was recorded with an action camera mounted on the helmet of the person who shared the video.

According to the person who posted the video, the speed reached was close to 100 km/h. This value, if confirmed, is far above what is legally permitted for this type of vehicle and on this road.

The incident is generating debate on social media, with users criticising the dangerousness of the scooter's behaviour, which rode on a fast lane where this type of vehicle should not be travelling.

Why this matters

Readers in the region are directly affected by this kind of behaviour, as it poses a serious risk to road safety. The video highlights the need for greater enforcement and awareness regarding the rules for electric scooters on Madeira's roads, where the maximum permitted speed for these vehicles is significantly lower than the speed reached in the incident.
