Footage showed the woman, who Italian authorities said was a US tourist, hurling the rented e-scooter down the steps in an apparent tantrum.

Two other idiot tourists were also fined for violating a strict rule while on holiday in Italy.

These unnamed men visited Rome from the Netherlands and decided to enter Trevi Fountain.

The scene was immediately inspected by police and the men tried to escape capture by mixing in with tourists.

They were soon caught and handed a fine of around €1000 (£844) for their crime, according toLocal media.

Overcrowding has led to a ban on a popular tourist attraction from accepting tourists.

Tourists are not allowed to visit the Amalfi Coast, Italy every day due to the problems caused by the influx of tourists.
