Off-road Bikes (Police Powers) Bill
[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to
This bill grants police extended powers to stop, search, and seize offroad motorcycles and quad bikes used without permission on public land or in ways that cause nuisance. It aims to address antisocial behaviour and environmental damage caused by uncontrolled offroad biking, particularly in rural areas and green spaces. The legislation allows officers to take action against vehicles used recklessly or illegally, with provisions for confiscation and potential prosecution of riders. The bill seeks to balance enforcement capabilities with community safety concerns about unregulated offroad bike activity.
