The supply of mechanically-propelled vehicles to persons under 16 and 17, depending on the vehicle, constitutes an offence under section 30 of the Road Traffic Act 2004 and a cross-agency group was established in April 2018 to consider the law governing these issues. The gardaí have been extensively consulted as has the Office of the Attorney General. Their advice is that current legislative provisions are sufficient. The Government is open to creating further legislation at any time, should the Garda Síochána recommend that this is necessary. The cross-agency group has recommended that the most effective response to scrambler misuse involves a combination of targeted enforcement measures, awareness-raising and youth engagement programmes. These measures will be progressed in conjunction with the relevant Department and agencies.
