A person is suspected of a crime after a collision between a scooter and a piste machine in Åre

The illegal driving is about the man allegedly driving a scooter without having been authorized to do so.

Violation of the Off-Road Driving Act concerns suspicions that the man also drove a scooter without a dispensation in a municipal scooter regulation area when the accident occurred within the regulation area.

In addition to this, it is also being investigated whether a work environment violation was committed because the accident is classified as a workplace accident and occurred during the scooter driver’s working hours.

The collision between the snowmobile and the piste machine occurred this Friday morning on a transport route on Åreskutan.

The scooter driver sustained serious injuries, while the piste machine driver had to go to the health center for a check-up.
