Good news - this e-scooter was seized yesterday in Bodmin having been seen being ridden at speed through FORE STREET. We have received multiple reports of this scooter being ridden in an anti-social manner and this is despite previous advice having been given to its owner.
Remember:
• E-scooters are illegal to ride on a public roads/pavements.
• They can only be used legally on private land, with the landowner's permission.
• Parents could be liable to prosecution if their children are found to be breaking the law.
• Officers have the power to seize e-scooters being ridden illegally.
• They are classed as motor vehicles under the Road Traffic Act 1988. This means that rules that apply to motor vehicles, also apply to e-scooters including the need to have a licence, insurance and tax. |
