Local Priority Issues

Priority Action taken

E-scooters and e-bikes.

Issued 15 April 2026

Police in Medway are continuing to take action to tackle the unsafe and unlawful use of e-scooters and e-bikes. During a recent targeted operation, officers stopped a number of riders, with several vehicles being seized and Traffic Offence Reports (TOR) issued for offences that were identified. A TOR is a formal record created by police when someone is suspected of committing a road traffic offence and may result in a fixed penalty notice, a driver education course or a court appearance. Alongside enforcement activity, officers spoke with riders to explain the laws that apply to e-scooters and e-bikes and provide advice on how to use them safely and responsibly. Officers will continue to address this issue during routine patrols. Anyone using an e-scooter or e-bike in breach of the Road Traffic Act 1988, which is the law governing road use, driver responsibilities and vehicle safety, may be stopped and could have their vehicle seized.
