Police have seized two e-scooters after concerns were raised by residents.
A 30-year-old man was stopped on an e-scooter on Church Street, Workington on March 14. He was found to have no driving licence or insurance for riding such a vehicle. He was reported for offences and the e-scooter was seized under Section 165.
A 13-year-old was stopped on an e-scooter on Salterbeck Drive, Workington, on March 6. The teenager was issued an 'It's Your Choice' form. The scooter belonged to a friend and advice was given regarding permitting use.
'It's Your Choice' forms are used to ensure police update parents on the behaviour of their children for those offences that fall below a criminal offence. The forms result in letters being sent home, home visits and intervention work to try and change behaviour.
