Police and Crime Commissioner Nicolle Ndiweni-Roberts has welcomed new figures showing 316 e-scooters have been seized off the streets of Derbyshire as part of a tough enforcement drive.

A new ‘seize and dispose’ approach was implemented by Derbyshire Constabulary on 1st November 2024 which sees officers seizing e-scooters on the first interaction with police before sending them for disposal. Users can also face prosecution through the courts.

The move, which was fully backed by the PCC who launched an awareness campaign to support the new approach, followed widespread concerns by residents that the vehicles were being used illegally and dangerously across the county.

Since the introduction of the new policy, 316 3-scooters have been seized – 52 of which have been taken in February.

In addition, all the force’s PCSOs across the county have received full training on the new procedure and have been granted the same powers as police officers to seize and dispose. This is a significant step which will enable officers and PCSOs to respond more robustly when they are reported to be causing a nuisance in our communities.

*** Operation Sceptre ***

This week, we have took part in a range of activities as part of Operation Sceptre, the national fight against knife crime. 🔪

We have encouraged anyone with unwanted knives to come to our amnesty bin events this week, which has been a great success, with a total of 51 knives handed in over Amber Valley.
They will be safely disposed of and it could prevent them getting into the wrong hands.

Did you know that it’s illegal to use an e-scooter in public areas?

This includes roads, pavements and cycle paths. The only place you can ride an e-scooter legally is on private land with the owner’s permission.

This is because an e-scooter is classed as a motor vehicle and so must be taxed, insured and have a valid MOT as well as adhere to some other legal requirements. As it’s not possible to achieve all of this with an e-scooter, if you’re found riding one in a public area you are liable for prosecution and could have your e-scooter seized.
