A police operation in Reading resulted in the seizure of 38 e-bikes and e-scooters.
The Reading Neighbourhood Team organised the operation after residents raised concerns about dangerous riding of illegal devices and associated antisocial behaviour.
Support was provided by the Roads Policing Tasking Team.
Officers used unmarked police vehicles and motorbikes to locate and target people riding the illegal e-bikes and e-scooters.
Every one of the 38 vehicles confiscated during the operation is due to be destroyed and will not be returned to the streets.
A police spokesperson said residents had highlighted the potential dangers these vehicles present to pedestrians, other road users and the wider community, together with antisocial conduct linked to their use.
The spokesperson added that the concerns were being heard and that action was being taken.
The operation continues wider efforts to improve safety in Reading and identify those breaking the law.
The police also expressed thanks to community members for their continued cooperation.
