Episode Details

West Lothian police are grappling with a surge in reports of reckless motorcycle, e-bike, and e-scooter usage. Unregistered motorbikes are illegal and pose a threat to all. E-bikes can legally be ridden on roads if they adhere to strict rules, including a maximum speed of 15.5 mph and a power output of 250 watts. Non-compliant e-bikes require a full UK driving license, insurance, and a helmet. E-scooters are banned from public spaces, but allowed on private land with permission. Police advise against confronting riders, urging residents to report incidents and ensure their own vehicles comply with regulations for safety.
