Seen on a number of occasions recently in the Brockham (Oakdene Road and surrounding roads ) areas. Young children riding Go Ped style scooters.

It should be noted that these motor powered vehicles are classed as motor vehicles, and not constructed to comply with Construction and Use regulations and vehicle safety standards, therefore should only be used `off road`. If used on a road (including pavement) the rider would require:

• a driving licence cat P
• at least third party insurance
• have the vehicle registered with DVLNI and display a number plate
• have and display a VEL
• have obligatory lamps, reflectors,rear markings and devices fitted
• fulfill all requirements under Motor Vehicles ( Con and Use) Regs 1999.

If parents have bought their children one of these vehicles, they can only be used on private property where permission has been granted.

Not on a road or public place.
