Eight people are facing legal action for riding e-scooters without insurance in Lincoln, a force has said.
Lincolnshire Police said the riders were stopped on Wednesday and Thursday and their vehicles were seized as part of a crackdown on people riding privately owned e-scooters in the city centre.
While anyone can buy an e-scooter, they can only be used on private land and not on public roads or pavements.
PC Will Cawte urged everyone to understand and follow the current regulations, as those caught could “end up with points on their driving licence or a ghost licence, which is another word for a licence they don’t yet hold”.
