Anti-social and reckless driving brings misery to communities across the country.
To combat this, West Midlands Police carried out an operation to crack down on illegal e-bikes in Birmingham city centre – where 16 bikes were seized and riders fined.
Under new powers these bikes will be disposed of after 48 hours, making it harder for offenders to reclaim them and continue their dangerous behaviour. Previously, police had to wait 14 days, allowing vehicles to be returned to offenders, often encouraging repeat offences.
Anti-social behaviour, in any form, will not be tolerated in our communities.
