• Malicious Communications

  Wed 15 May 2024

  Malicious Communications has been an ongoing problem we have had in Lincolnshire for the last few years now. It is one of the top 5 crimes in which our 14-16 year olds have received a criminal conviction for. Online behaviour is something we talk regularly to children and young people about across the county within our online safety sessions. We want to also make sure parents are aware of these laws and the potential consequences our online behaviour can have in the real world, for our children’s futures. We have attached a document which outlines the different laws regarding online behaviour, this is to accompany our video aimed at parents Stay Safe Talks - Malicious Communications (youtube.com)/ (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Akl9CgpP9t8We) would appreciate if you could share the video and attached factsheet through your newsletters to help educate parents on this issue.

   

  Kind Regards,

  Kathryn

• Lincolnshire Police Notification on e -scooter

  Lincolnshire Police Notification on e -scooter

  Thinking of buying an e-scooter?

   

  Lincolnshire Police is reminding parents and guardians that e-scooters are not legal to use it on public pavements or roads.

   

  Inspector Jason Baxter said, “Our approach to this will be to engage and educate. When that fails, we will enforce. We know that e-scooters are probably on Christmas lists this year, and may be tempting in the January sales, we just want people to think twice before buying a product that’s so limited in where you can legally use it.”

   

  Whilst our aim is to engage and educate, penalties for using an e-scooter illegally can include seizure of the e-scooter.

   

  • In Lincolnshire, the only place you can legally use an e-scooter is on private land, with the permission of the land owner. Read more about our advice on using e-scooters.
  • If you are considering buying an e-scooter, please also read this advice from Lincolnshire Fire and Rescue after safety concerns over e-scooters regarding charging and battery storage. 
  • As part of a trial, rental e-scooters are allowed on public roads and cycle lanes in approved areas in some cities (not currently Lincoln) provided you have the correct licence and follow road traffic regulations. Find out more about e-scooter trials.
