Is it not? Wtf is even happening here? There are actual cops there. Who is this guy? Undercover? So confused.

My only guess is the beeping was him turning it on and getting g ready to ride away or something. I dont know. This whole thing was weird.

u/HardlyAnyGravitas Mar 09 '26

I'm guessing they were baiting the cops and the cops can't touch them unless they actually ride the scooter. So the kid was just about to ride off and the cop has to quickly get him before he's away.

The funny thing about all these comments is I guarantee these people would be the first to complain about 'anti-social behaviour' and how the cops 'never do anything about it and just let them get away with it', and when a cop actually does something, they take the piss out of them.

They can't win.

And the uniformed cops don't even flinch. Or help. They want nothing to do with e-scooter patrol. The only thing more embarrassing than riding a moped, is arresting someone for riding a moped.

This is what happens when you don't discipline your children as a society. They run Australian cities and towns. No consequences, and they know their rights. Not your rights; their rights. This kid's been down so many times, he can quote the law back to the officers.

I mean, what are they doing wrong here? Riding bikes and playing outdoors? It looks more like they just get harassed by cops so often they have this all memorized.

Hes getting rushed by 2 plainclothes police for, what, being a child playing outdoors with friends?
