Where e-bikes and e-scooters can be used within the law.

🎄 📜 We understand that many parents/guardians/carers/Father Christmas/Santa are looking at Christmas lists and the request for e-bikes 🚲 and e-scooters 🛴 and are coming in at the top.

When we stop e-bikes  and e-scooters, the biggest response we get is that the person did not know they were illegal and were not told so upon purchase.

😞 Sadly this is not something that can be taken into account when seizing the item and in most cases it can never be returned unless it meets specific criteria such as insurance, tax and a license for some (Private e-scooters cannot be insured by anyone).

No one wants their Christmas ruined and no one wants to ruin it, especially the police.

⚠️ Before you spend a significant amount of money on these, here's some information about where ebikes and scooters can be used within the law. ⏬
