E-Bikes Know The Law

Dear Residents, 

#ThinkTwice | Confused about the law around e-bikes, e-scooters and quad bikes?  

If the vehicle can travel faster than 15.5mph with the motor, has a continuous rated power output higher than 250 watts and does not have pedals that can propel it, it is classed as a motorcycle or moped and you will need: 

🪪 Driving licence

🏍️   Motorcycle helmet that meets British Safety Standards

🛡️   Insurance

🧾   Tax
