dirt bike laws

[glaggs]

Where shall I start?

if a mechanically propelled vehicle is on the highway, it must be road registered, taxed, insured and MoT'd. The person in charge of it must be have a valid licence for that type of vehicle.
This myth about one wheel of the ground/spark plug off is just that, a myth.
If a motor vehicle is being driven other than on a road, and is not parking or turning round, it is an offence, with the exception of private land of course.
Take it from me, Traffic Law is very complicated, but there is virtually no way round things. For every cop that will give 'words of advice' and tell you to 'be on your way, sunshine', there is one who will tie you up in knots and give you a ticket at the very least!

If in doubt, don't do it.


As above - there is an exception clause for electrically propelled vehicles used as invalid carrages - don't know the full details but I'm sure a speed limit is part of the rules.
