Staffordshire Police have reported that electrical scooters (also known as e-scooters) come under the category of “powered transporters”; this covers a range of personal transport devices which are powered by a motor.
E-scooters are classed as motor vehicles under the Road Traffic Act 1988. Which means the rules that apply to motor vehicles, also apply to e-scooters including the need to have a licence, insurance and tax.
It’s not currently possible to get insurance for privately owned e-scooters, which means it’s illegal to use them on the road or in public spaces. If you’re using a private e-scooter you risk the vehicle being seized under S.165 Road Traffic Act 1988 for no insurance.
If you cause serious harm to another person whilst riding an e-scooter the incident will be investigated in the same way it would if you were riding a motorcycle or driving a car.
Rental e-scooter trials
Trials of rental e-scooters are taking place in the UK. Anyone using a rental e-scooter on a public road or other public space, has to comply with the relevant road traffic legislation or they face potential prosecution.
To rent an e-scooter you must:
· meet the minimum age limit; these can vary depending on the provider, so please check with them
· hold the correct driving licence (category Q or P/M)
· create an account with the rental company
· E-scooters can only be used in approved areas.
Legal use of an e-scooter
It’s legal to use an e-scooter on private land with the permission of the land owner.
Where a trial rental scheme is running, it’s legal to use a rental e-scooter on a public road or cycle lane, provided you have the correct licence and follow road traffic regulations.
Penalties and offences
If you don’t have a licence, or the correct licence, or are riding without insurance you could face a Fixed Penalty notice:
· with a £300 fine and six penalty points on your licence for having no insurance
· up to £100 fine and three to six penalty points for riding without the correct licence
· You could also be committing an offence if you’re caught:
· riding on a pavement; Fixed Penalty Notice and possible £50 fine
· using a mobile phone or other handheld mobile device while riding; £200 and six penalty points
· riding through red lights; Fixed Penalty Notice, £100 fine and possible penalty points
· drink driving: the same as if you were driving a car, you could face court imposed fines, a driving ban and possible imprisonment
· If you’re using an e-scooter in public in an antisocial manner, you can also risk the e-scooter being seized under section 59 of the Police Reform Act.
When riding an e-scooter, we would always recommend wearing safety protection such as a helmet and to keep to the speed limit.
Today the Council’s Environmental Crime Unit 14.08.24 will place an abandoned vehicle notice on the trailer left on the “Free Shoppers Car Park” located on Goldenhill High Street.

Deputy Staffordshire Commissioner Dave Evans joined local children for a trial session at Hitmix radio station recently as part of this year’s Staffordshire Space programme.
Space is funded by the Staffordshire Commissioner for Police, Fire & Rescue and Crime Ben Adams and brings together public, voluntary and private sector organisations to provide activities for children across Staffordshire in the school holidays.
Hitmix Radio, located in Alsagers Bank, Newcastle-under-Lyme, has offered free sessions to children over the summer where they are given the opportunity to record their own advertisement and tour the studio.
The Staffordshire Space programme is open to 8–17-year-olds and aims to provide memorable experiences for many, while diverting some away from potential involvement in low-level crime and anti-social behaviour.
Space 2024 will run until 30 August. To book your child onto an activity, visit: https://staffordshirespace.uk/
Young bikers who want to improve their skills and keep themselves safe on the roads are invited to a free, informal BBQ on Wednesday 14 August, hosted by the Staffordshire Safer Roads Partnership (SSRP).
The Young Biker BBQ, which takes place from 6-9pm at Bryan’s Motorcycle Training, Bet 365 Stadium, Stoke, gives bikers – and their parents or guardians – the chance to meet other bikers their own age, the road safety team and partners, with the opportunity to access training and advice on safer riding.
The event is part of a range of initiatives from the SSRP to help keep young riders safe, including a scheme that offers potential riders aged 15-21 the opportunity of a £50 discount off their CBT if they attend one of our Pre-CBT workshops either in person or online – contact stuart.allen@staffordshire.gov.uk or staffs-new-biker@staffordshire.gov.uk for more info or to book your place.
If you know a young biker who is looking to improve their skills, or is thinking about using a bike to commute to work or college as an alternative to public transport, find out more about the BBQ and other resources at: www.staffsbiker.co.uk/young-biker-bbqs/
Snugburys Ice Cream farm in Nantwich has unveiled their latest giant straw sculpture – Paddington Bear!
The giant 45ft high sculpture is the largest of the firm’s creations which are famously seen from the A51 Chester Road at Hurleston.
Once again Snugburys teamed up with local artist Mike Harper, of nearby Harbrook Engineering, to make the creation.
A Snugburys spokesperson said: “We are incredibly excited to introduce our latest sculpture Paddington Bear.
“This is our largest straw feature to date, standing at a very impressive 45 feet tall!
“He is made from straw, larch shingles and a metal frame.
“The very impressive frame work is made by the incredibly talented Mike Harper from Harbrook engineering.
“The Snugburys team have been busy straw stuffing and Sarah from @twigtwisters has done some fabulous willow weaving including the hat and suitcase.
“It has taken over 1,500 hours of work from welding, straw stuffing, willow weaving, painting and cladding, and it has been a true labour of love – and sleepless nights!”
With each new sculpture, the firm chooses a charity for donations and this year it is MPS charity.
They added: “Very sadly our family friend’s little boy Freddie was diagnosed with this cruel rare disease called MPS syndrome also known as childhood dementia.
“We hope to raise as much as we can.
“We wish to thank everyone who has helped with this project as we could not have done it without you.”
Paddington replaces the long-standing Bee sculpture which has been in place for a number of years.
Previous sculptures include a cyclist, the Millennium Wheel, Big Ben, and a Meerkat!
