Driving the wrong way on the Naples ring road: investigation into five scooters

Police are investigating an incident along the Naples ring road, between Agnano and Pozzuoli. As reported by the local newspaper Il Mattino, five scooters, each with two passengers, entered the expressway around 2:30 a.m. Sunday morning, speeding between lanes with their headlights off. After a motorist reported the incident, a traffic police car responded, but the scooters had already fled the scene. An attempt is being made to retrieve the license plate numbers of the vehicles from video footage. It is not excluded that, after filling up with gas, the scooters exited a service station on that stretch of road in the wrong direction.
