Lime's alcohol test, which was introduced over the carnival season, is intended to test the reaction times of scooter renters in order to check their fitness to drive. The test will be used in the German carnival strongholds of Cologne and Düsseldorf.

E-scooters should not be used after consuming alcohol. In order for this to be adhered to, an alcohol test must first be passed in the app. People who repeatedly fail the test would be banned from Lime for several hours.
