E scooter seized by police

Police in Abingdon seized an e-scooter being illegally ridden and provided advice to the rider and their parents. Meanwhile, in Inverness, officers stopped a bizarre vehicle consisting of an exercise bike welded to an e-scooter, which the rider was operating without the necessary documents. Both incidents highlight ongoing concerns regarding the legality and safety of e-scooter usage in public spaces. While the Abingdon incident drew public support for the police's actions, the Inverness contraption amused locals, with many expressing admiration for the rider's creativity. Authorities remind the public that riding privately owned e-scooters on roads or pavements is illegal due to insurance issues. The Inverness police confirmed that the rider was reported and the unusual vehicle was seized.
