There are increasing reports of youths or young people who are driving cars without either licence or not in accordance with their licence. The cars are in some cases uninsured, untaxed and are not road legal i.e. with no MOT. They are driving around the area sometimes with several other people who are of a same or similar age.
We are aware youths are either purchasing cars for a low price on facebook or taking parents cars in the middle of the night.
We are encouraging parents to have conversations with their young people around the dangers of this behaviour, and we are asking members of the public to report any suspicious activity, driving or sightings that maybe linked.

The use of mechanically-propelled vehicles, such as E-Scooters or E-Bikes that do not require pedalling, is not permitted on the road or any public spaces including footpaths and bridle ways.
They are covered by the same laws and regulations that cover all motor vehicles. As such if you are caught using such transport you are liable to the same penalties as if you were using a motor vehicle.
Such as fines or penalty points under Road Traffic Regulations including seizure of the transport device.
In recent months, we have received a number of complaints about the use of E Transport in Peasedown St John, Neighbourhood Officers will be speaking to E Transport users to educate and if necessary, enforce current legislation.

Status Update
Since the seizure of an electric motorcycle in October, we’ve had no further reports of nuisance E-Bikes in the Peasedown area. With Christmas approaching, we’d like to remind parents and guardians to consider the legal requirements before purchasing or allowing the use of such vehicles.
Electric motorcycles and certain high-powered E-Bikes often require insurance, registration, and a valid driving licence to be used on public roads. Using them without meeting these requirements can lead to enforcement action, including seizure.
Please ensure any vehicle you buy complies with the law to keep our community safe and avoid unnecessary issues.
