We have been pleasantly surprised by the feedback from our series of presentations made to schools in the Antrim area about the dangers of e-scooters. As a result more schools are requesting the presentation. We are also presenting it to a large group of parents via Webex tomorrow night. We are getting the message out there.

šŸšØ PARENTS AND GUARDIANS: PLEASE THINK BEFORE BUYING AN E-SCOOTER

An e-scooter might be on your childā€™s Christmas wish list, but children and young people are suffering serious injuries while riding them. What looks like an exciting present can have devastating consequences for a child and their family.
At Road Safe NI Charity, we are urging parents across Northern Ireland to consider the risks before buying. E-scooters are motorised vehicles, and riders have little protection when they fall or become involved in a collision. Pedestrians can also be seriously injured.

Please know the rules in Northern Ireland:
āŒ No riding on public roads.ļæ½āŒ No riding on pavements or public footpaths.ļæ½āŒ No riding in cycle lanes.ļæ½āœ… Private land only, with the landownerā€™s permission.

Being legal to buy does not make an e-scooter legal to ride in public. This includes journeys to school, the shops or a friendā€™s house. Illegal use can lead to police action and seizure.
A helmet does not make public use legal, and it cannot remove the risk of serious injury.
šŸŽ Choose a safer gift this Christmas. Your childā€™s safety is worth more than the surprise under the tree.
Please share this message with other parents. A conversation before buying could prevent a lifetime of regret.
šŸ’ššŸ’™ Every journey matters. Every choice matters.

Halloween should be a safe and enjoyable time for everyone; however, we often see an increase in reports of anti-social behaviour at this time of year.

Most people are responsible, but we need to be considerate of others. Remember, what might seem like harmless fun to some, may actually feel like anti-social behaviour to others.

Officers will be conducting patrols to ensure everyone is enjoying their Halloween safely.

If you have any concerns about anti-social behaviour happening in your community, you can contact us online at https://orlo.uk/EBk2w or call 101.

Always dial 999 in an emergency.
