Obeying the regulations and making sure the "telling off" could be recorded as per said regulations??

The inspector was an awfully nice fellow, ex Sandhurst, asked if I wouldn't mind awfully not calling them the No active Team, at least to their faces, as it was making them jolly batey.

In Widnes Town Centre - a place which is very obviously covered by a fair number of CCTV cameras!!

And another dropped his jacket containing personal items - maybe his mum had stitched a name tag in it for him

Love the bit where a parent rang the Police and asked for the bike back

Optimism is alive and well in Widnes!!!

I like this bit from the article linked above.
“If you decide to spend thousands of pounds on an illegal bike, or adapt a bike to overcome legal restrictions, please do not expect sympathy when the bike is seized and crushed."

The should knock the parents off for use, cause or permit.

Scary thing about stuff like that happening close to me is that it always makes me wonder it I taught them

articles like that do make me think it is more than possible!!!

If e-bike batteries are so volatile that it justifies banning them from trains, why haven't any crushed e-bikes burnt down a police station yet?

Because they dont crush them in police stations?
