Public warned not to buy lethal scrambler bikes as Christmas presents
A mini-scrambler motorbike seized by gardai in Cork.
Scrambler bikes are lethal in the hands of children and should not be bought as Christmas presents, road safety chiefs have warned as new figures show that gardaí have seized almost 260 quad bikes in two years.
More than half of those seizures were made in Dublin. The figure is expected to rise over the coming months once the Road Traffic Bill 2021 is signed into law.
