I take the point about the confusion around motorised rickshaws for personal use. I cannot see how anyone would use a rickshaw for personal use, but one never knows. That is why I referred to motorised scooters with four wheels. People are starting to use them. They are used in European countries. They might be small wheels but there are four of them. I wonder, therefore, if that is going to leave us open. Will it be taken into account when the legislation is drawn up that this could be an issue? We are going to see a great many more motorised scooters flying around during and after Christmas. I have a feeling that is the next big complaint coming down the road.
