Leader-Post StaffAfter attempting to outrun the law on electric dirt bikes and an e-scooter, three Regina boys are facing hefty fines for their traffic violations.
At about 8 p.m. on July 22, a Traffic Safety Unit officer near Lakeridge Road and Rochdale Boulevard noticed three boys on e-dirt bikes and a fourth on an e-scooter, according to the release.
An e-bike is a power-assisted bicycle with pedals while an e-dirt bike has no pedals and is powered by an electric motor.
They also need to be 16 or over to operate an e-scooter and at least 14 to legally ride a pedalled e-bike.
The Aerial Support Unit tracked the other three to their residences, where officers issued each one $1,310 worth of fines, added the police statement.
