Scooter off the street in Lees

Scooter off the street in Lees

 Police took the opportunity while visiting shops on High Street, Lees, to stop a male riding an illegal electric scooter and remove it from the streets.

The male was using the scooter to travel to and from work. Please remember that if a vehicle is being used illegally on public roads, it can be seized, regardless of the reason for its use.

Many electric scooters are classed as mechanically propelled vehicles and, when used on public roads or public places, require the appropriate insurance and legal compliance. Vehicles being used unlawfully may be seized and, in some cases, destroyed.

Before purchasing or using an electric scooter, ensure you understand the legal requirements. Help keep our roads and footpaths safe for everyone.
