From June 1 to 7, 2026, European countries will carry out Operation ROADPOL Two-Wheelers, aimed at intensifying enforcement against two-wheeled vehicles and micromobility devices.
According to ROADPOL’s 2026 plan, inspections will focus on riders of motorcycles, mopeds, bicycles, and electric scooters. The organization notes that these road users are among the most vulnerable, and the popularity of two-wheeled vehicles and light electric mobility devices in Europe continues to grow.
During the checks, police will pay attention to the technical condition of vehicles, protective gear, visibility on the road, and driver behavior. In some countries, checks will also target speeding, dangerous maneuvers, cell phone use while driving, tire condition, unauthorized modifications, as well as alcohol and drugs.
Three main categories will be subject to increased scrutiny: motorcycles and mopeds, bicycles, as well as electric scooters and other light electric vehicles.
ROADPOL is conducting this operation for the second year in a row. In 2025, a pilot operation revealed a high level of violations: for example, in Belgium alone, police inspected 420 electric scooters, 611 mopeds, 5,216 bicycles, and 568 motorcycles, identifying 1,118 violations.
The goal of the campaign is not just to issue fines, but to reduce the number of fatalities and serious injuries on Europe’s roads.
