Need clarification of the law.

You can't find a law forbidding them from the road? Really?

- The vehicle is unfit for road use on multiple counts, mostly not type approved or single vehicle approved.
- The driver has no licence.
- The vehicle is not taxed.
- The combination is not insured.

what evidence have you got that this took place though ?

none

the only thing you can do is ask the cops to come out and have words with them. Which as already said is just going to antagonize things more.

Just have them come by next time they bring them out. Toys get confiscated, wings remain in tact.

As nobody saw anything I'd say you don't have a leg to stand on.
BUT, with all things legal the first stop everyone should make is at the Citizens Advice Bureau.

I'm not that concerned about recovering the cost of the damage, what I want to ensure is that no one elses property is damaged as a result of 10 year olds riding karts that are far too far with almost inoperable brakes.

So can I inform them that the cars are illegal for use on the public highway?

What‽ Why? It's not your place to do so.

Inform the police that they are in use, the police will then inform them that they are illegal on the road.

Do you think they'll do that?

Looks like the rider bashed his or her head on the car, not the kart itself

I can see where you're coming from, but surely it's better to do something about it rather than have neighbours who think they can get away with not respecting others' property?

Do what you have no evidence and no witnesses. there is no legal route you can take.

Pay for it and if you want ask them not to drive on the road.

All motorised vehicles have to be insured and licensed. which is why scooters, segways etc are all illegal s none are registered.

It's not worth a neighbour war.

 

[BigglesPiP]

Do you think they'll do that?

No, frankly.

I cant see what they have done, I would just put a complaint in to the police that they HAVE crashed into your car, and you would appreciate someone going and having a word with them about the whys and wherefores of the law.

As for the dent, I'd just cough up and get it fixed and leave it at that.
