What happens if my cell phone goes off - can I continue driving?
As a customer, you are obliged to carry a valid ticket. If you do not have your chip card with you and cannot show a D-Ticket in LeipzigMOVE, you will not be able to continue your journey.
If I have my D-ticket in LeipzigMOVE, do I still have to carry the chip card with me?
It is not necessary to carry the chip card for the D-Ticket. The D-Ticket in MOVE in conjunction with a valid ID document is sufficient as authorization to travel.
Can I also buy the D-Ticket in LeipzigMOVE?
No, but you can access the customer portal via "Buy ticket" under "Subscriptions" to order your D-Ticket there.
Is there a blood alcohol limit?
Riding the e-scooter under the influence of alcohol, drugs or medication is prohibited. It impairs your sense of balance, your reaction time and your judgment. This puts you and other road users at risk.
