Police have seized more than 800 e scooters across Derbyshire as part of ongoing work to tackle illegal use and protect public safety.

You can own an e scooter – but unless you are using it on private land with permission, riding it in public is illegal and could cost you more than you think.

Police have powers under the Road Traffic Act 1988 and Police Reform Act 2002 to seize vehicles that are unlicensed, uninsured, or causing alarm or nuisance. 

You could face fines, points on your licence, or prosecution, and parents or guardians of under 18s may also be held responsible.

PCC Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts is continuing to act nationally and locally, including:

🏛️ Lobbying Government Ministers and working with enforcement bodies to strengthen guidance 
⚖️ Challenging retailers who mislead consumers 
📢 Funding targeted awareness campaigns, including a ‘Know Your Rights’ video for young people 
🚫 Installing over 200 “No E Scooter” signs in hotspot areas 
🛍️ Engaging retailers to promote responsible sales

Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts is calling on residents to share their local policing priorities to help officers better meet their expectations. 

From shoplifting and street-level theft through to policing visibility and response times, the Derbyshire PCC is keen to fully understand the issues that impact local people’s trust and confidence in Neighbourhood Policing and most importantly, what improvements they believe are needed to make it better. 

The Commissioner’s next Public Assurance Meeting (PAM) will focus exclusively on Neighbourhood Policing – one of six priorities in her new Police and Crime Plan – and she is urging residents to drive the agenda by submitting questions in advance. 

Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts said: “Neighbourhood Policing is bedrock of British policing and highly valued by the public. Undoubtedly, how safe people feel and how much confidence they have in local police are determined by the quality, visibility and accessibility of Neighbourhood Policing. 

“If you have been personally affected by crime or have an experience to share relating to local policing, please take this opportunity to get in touch. What you tell us could help us better address community concerns in your area, refine local policing priorities and improve future services for the benefit of everyone.”
