00:05e-bikes and scooters, the illegal use of them in Lancashire. We've got a great team up and running

00:12at the moment that is taking them off the streets. Delighted that we've taken 750 this year alone,

00:20illegal bikes and scooters off the streets of Lancashire and had them scrapped. It's a message

00:27really for young people and for the parents. Not to buy these e-bikes and scooters, not to use them

00:34illegally because there are serious consequences. If you do so we will seek to take them off you and

00:42to scrap them but also for young people the DVLA can hold the points against you so even in the future

00:52when you apply for a driving license those points can be implemented and you can have those points

00:59on your license or even banned from driving. So it's really important don't do something that is stupid

01:07and illegal, don't use e-bikes and scooters, don't endanger the people of Lancashire on our streets

01:15and pavements and keep the streets of Lancashire safe.
