Humberside Police confiscated an e-scooter in Grimsby after the scooter was detected travelling at 30mph on a pedestrian pathway. The seizure of this scooter forms part of a wider strategy to tackle motorcycle-related crime and issues of antisocial behaviour in the region. This enforcement initiative aligns with Operation Yellowfin, a recent endeavour which led to the impounding of nine illegal scooters in Hull.
One of the main intentions of the ongoing campaign is to promote responsible behaviour and develop long-term solutions to these problems. The initiative indicates the commitment of the police to ensure safety and protect the welfare of residents all over the region, inclusive of nearby regions like Lincolnshire.
