Mini motos
Miniature motorbikes - commonly known as mini-motos - are legally classed as motor vehicles and are therefore subject to the same legal restrictions. This means that, if a mini-moto is being ridden or even just pushed along in a public place, it needs insurance, tax and registration documents to be legal.
A 'public place' includes roads, footpaths, parks, commons and car parks.
Street legal
To be street legal, the driver must have a driving license and therefore be over 16 years of age, and wearing suitable protective headgear. The mini-moto should be fitted with the following:
* Lights
* Brakes
* Brake lights
* Horn
* Speedometer
* Good tyres
The rider can receive an ?80 penalty notice for riding in an anti social manner.
