E-bike gifts blamed for rise in motoring offences
Western Mail
|April 12, 2025
CHILDREN being given e-bikes for Christmas was partly to blame for a rise in motoring offences among youngsters in Cardiff, according to a city council official.
-
Cardiff council's operational manager for youth justice service, Angharad Thomas, spoke to members of the local authority's children and young people scrutiny committee at a meeting this week.
During the meeting, a co-opted member of the scrutiny committee asked about council statistics that show a shift in the most common type of offence among young people between October and December 2024 from “violence against the person” to “motoring offences”.
Carol Cobert, co-opted member of the scrutiny committee, asked if “motoring offences” covered electric bikes as well as cars.
