My Neighbour has 2 electric ride on karts for their kids. Unfortunately one of the kids crashed into my car as it was parked on the road and caused considerable damage to the front wing of my car. Depsite originally agreeing to pay for the damage done they are now refusing to cough up the cash.
The ride on cars are electric but can travel upto speeds of about 10mph, with poor brakes (despite it being a disk brake). Now what I need to know is should the cars be used on the public highway or are they illegal?
I remeber recently hearing on the radio that these popular electric scooters aren't allowed on a public highway and neither allowed on pavement, does the same law apply to the electric cars that my neighbours kids use.
The electric cars both cost £400 each, so it'd be great to inform them that they are illegal and that I will inform the police if they continue to use them.
