Greener Homes PosterE-SCOOTERS & BIKES – Anti Social Behaviour
/in News /by ClerkMy Community Voice & Kent Police
LOCAL PRIORITIES – E-SCOOTERS & BIKES
Following numerous reports of the illegal and anti-social use of e-scooters; Maidstone Town Team are actively tackling the use of them.
63 e-scooters have been seized this year, so far.
We remind everyone that e-scooters are illegal to use in a public place. They require valid insurance, a valid drivers licence and MOT.
Tackling antisocial behaviour can be a complex issue, and one which requires input and action from more than just the police.
The Anti-social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014 aims to put victims first, giving power to local people and enabling professionals to find the best solutions for their local area.
The act provides the police, local authorities and other local agencies with flexible tools and powers that they can use to respond quickly and effectively to antisocial behaviour.
These include:
• civil injunctions.
• criminal behaviour orders.
• public spaces protection orders.
• community protection notices.
• dispersal powers.
• closure powers.
The act also includes measures such as the Community Remedy and antisocial behaviour case reviews which empower victims and communities to have a say in the outcome of their reports and hold agencies to account.
If you ever experience this issue or have information regarding an incident, please report it using our online reporting tools at https://www.kent.police.uk, speak to an operator in our Force Communications Room via our online web chat or call the non-emergency number 101.
