On Tuesday, a police officer stopped a juvenile riding an electric dirt bike through the Great Park neighborhood without a motorcycle-rated helmet, according to the Irvine Police Department.
The Surron is capable of traveling around 50 MPH. The juvenile was given a ticket for not wearing a proper helmet and not having a driver’s license. We called a wrecker, and the bike was stored.
Unsafe riders should expect strict enforcement. The Irvine Police Department’s daily enforcement efforts are being supported by routine high-visibility enforcement operations.
There were no helmet laws when we grew up. Everything was great. Now they ticket the poor kid AND impound his electric bike. That’s severe. And they’re proud of their harsh authoritarianism too. Orwellian. The Karen’s and SIMPs voted in this totalitarian nonsense. How do we get it off our society?
