E-scooters/e-bikes.
Issued: 3 Feb 2026
Status Update
This issue is raised regularly in Birchington and across Thanet. PC England recently wrote an article for the Birchington Parish Council magazine explaining the law around e‑scooters to increase awareness. Our Child‑Centred Policing Team has also delivered presentations in several local schools, highlighting the law around e‑scooters and the consequences of being caught using one on a road or in a public place.
We will continue to take a robust approach during patrols and will seize any illegal e‑scooters where necessary.
Please keep telling PC England about anything that concerns you by attending his ward surgeries or contacting him on My Community Voice. If you don’t have an account, you can sign up by visiting www.mycommunityvoicekent.co.uk
