Officers have seized a further 55 illegal e-bikes and scooters during a recent deployment in Cardiff.
On Sunday 25 and Friday 30 January, officers in Cardiff were deployed across the city centre, Ely, Fairwater, Cathays and Roath as part of a local initiative targeting illegal and dangerously ridden e-bikes and off-road vehicles in our towns.
Rolling out after a briefing at Cardiff Central, the local Neighbourhood Policing Team was supported by colleagues from Cardiff Council and Home Immigration Enforcement to patrol across different areas of the city to check the vehicles, educate drivers and if needed, seize the vehicle.
A total of 55 e-bikes and e-scooters were seized during the deployment. Some of which were tested and shown to reach speeds in excess of 80mph.
This operation goes beyond simply riding these vehicles illegally. Officers also made three arrests for Possession with Intent to Supply Class B (Cannabis) and Home Office Immigration Enforcement had a successful deployment with 3 arrests, all bailed and reported for breach of bail and working illegally in the UK.
Inspector Tim Ursell said:
"These are great results that will undoubtedly have a positive impact on the members of local communities whose lives are continually disrupted by the dangerous and anti-social riding of off-road and illegal road vehicles.
"Combating anti-social behaviour is a key pillar of the Neighbourhood Policing Guarantee with this op showing our continued commitment in Cardiff to tackling this issue." -
