Plod to get new toys....

Who you gonna call?

[bednobs]

anything that stops the mances would be good.  They annoy the hell out of me.

i see it needs a line of sight though, so could be tricky to be in the right place at the right time

or they could just by-pass the safety system ?

Claims of feeling woozy and bad backs can't be far away as is the way with these things.

Better go back to ramming them, much more entertaining.

I'm sure folk with malicious intent will be interested too.

The only problem I can see with this device is the police will have to get out of their cars.

"IF" it happens then a good thing.

Bet it doesn though.  Infringes on the ooman rights of the villain.

The strength of the electromagnetic pulse required to disrupt the normal operation of the e-bike or e-scooter (at any reasonable distance) will almost certainly be hazardous to anyone in close proximity (bystanders, pedestrians and the riders themselves).
