On the streets and pavements of London we are continually buzzed by what are effectively electric motorbikes. They are of course bicycles fitted with electric motors, and are ridden around by low lifes - or Deliveroo deliverers.
Every time I see one (every few minutes) I think:
1. Uninsured - £300 plus 6 points
2. No MOT - £2000 plus points
3. No tax - £30 plus 1.5 times the outstanding tax
4. No appropriate helmet £500
5. Riding on the pavement - dangerous riding - up to 5 years in prison.
Why don't the police do something, these riders are putting pedestrians - and themselves - at risk. If you were to stop 100 poeple doing this and advertise it then word would soon get around.
I guess the Daily Mail would point out that they're catching Twitter offenders instead.
