Not an e bike problem, just crime problem. So if bank robbers use a car it's a car problem.

This report started out with such promise that finally the police are getting a grip on the problem of phone snatching but turned out being about the police on checking the speed of food delivery riders?

The people being stopped don’t look like the phone snatching offenders we keep hearing about. If the main concern is criminals using e-bikes to steal phones, why isn’t that the focus? Instead, it feels like the Met is targeting ordinary people just trying to get to work. The real issue isn’t being addressed . Quite simply, a few criminals have ruined it for everyone, and yet they’re the ones not being caught.
