I am unsure of how familiar the Minister is with this issue, but those of us representing urban constituencies are all too familiar with what is now a widespread problem, namely, the use of quad bikes and scramblers by youths and, often, young children. It poses a major danger to the riders themselves as well as to the public generally and renders many housing estates unusable for other purposes because of road safety reasons. A concerted Government response to the problem is now required.
