Princes Park — Neighbourhood Policing Team

E-scooters and e-bikes.

Any e-bikes and e-scooters being used unlawfully within the community are being stopped and, where appropriate, seized. Officers record the details of those involved and, where the rider is under the age of 18, parents or guardians are informed so they can support efforts to address the behaviour. Some e-scooters and e-bikes cannot be used legally on public roads, pavements or other public spaces, and misuse can create risks for pedestrians and other road users. As part of ongoing enforcement activity, a recent targeted operation was carried out across Medway to tackle the unlawful use of e-scooters and e-bikes. During the operation, multiple scooters were seized and appropriate action was taken against those using them illegally. This work aims to improve road safety, reduce antisocial behaviour and address concerns raised by local residents.

Nuisance motorcycles.

Officers carry out regular high-visibility patrols in areas where nuisance motorcycles have been reported. These patrols help to deter antisocial behaviour, identify offenders and provide reassurance to local residents. Antisocial vehicle use can include riding in a way that causes nuisance, alarm or distress to others, such as dangerous riding, excessive noise or using vehicles in places where they are not permitted. When riders are found to be using motorcycles in an antisocial manner, officers may issue warning notices and take action in relation to any road traffic offences that have been committed. Police will continue to patrol these areas and take appropriate enforcement action to help improve safety and address concerns raised by the community.

Road safety.

High-visibility patrols remain a key part of our work to improve road safety and deter dangerous or inconsiderate driving. Officers regularly patrol local roads and take action when they identify drivers breaking the Highway Code. As part of this ongoing work, a driver was recently stopped on the North Dane Way roundabout after pulling out without proper care and attention because they had become distracted by nearby building works. The driver was dealt with for the offence and issued with a fine. Officers will continue to carry out patrols and enforcement activity to help improve road safety and reduce the risk of collisions.
