A consultation will consider whether on-the-spot fines and other measures should be introduced to tackle dangerous riding on electric bikes, including riding while under the influence of alcohol.
The proposed review is expected to examine ways of dealing with e-bike users whose behaviour is considered dangerous. Fines are among the options being considered as part of a wider effort to address the issue.
The supplied details do not specify the consultation’s location, timetable, proposed penalty levels or which organisation will lead the process. They also do not set out how any new measures would be enforced.
Further information is expected to clarify the scope of the consultation and whether on-the-spot fines or other measures will ultimately be introduced.
