Kids stopped by police for pretending to ride motorbikes on pavement


Two young boys both aged eight were stopped by police yesterday for the seemingly harmless game of pretending to ride motorcycles on the pavement.

PC Dave Barter from New Haven said "riding motorbikes on the pavement is dangerous and I just reminded them of that.  I know it's just a harmless game riding pretend bikes, that's just for now, how long until they're riding real motorbikes?  I just reminded them that it is unsafe to ride motorbikes on the pavement.

The father of one of the boys Nick Kent said "It's unbelievable really, it's health and safety gone mad, what does he want them to do, play in the road where it's safer for everyone?
