Sons stolen scooter

Ricky from Burwood

Hi everyone,

Today (Sun 30th Aug) at around 2pm my 10yr old son was at Thompson Park skate park with his nana riding his new scooter that he got for his birthday.

2 older boys who he think were early teens asked to ride it and ended up running off with it.

His nana was unaware as she was also watching his smaller cousin at the time but realised when he came to her quite devastated.

I spent a few hrs driving around Brighton but we didn't see it again.

If your son turns up home with a new looking green scooter (MGP VX9 PRO) that they didn't have before today it may be my son's.

Its a long shot but I had a 10yr old crying himself to sleep tonight. He has learning difficulties and is just really trusting so this is a tough lesson for him.

Scooter looks like the one attached.

Thanks everyone. May be a good thing I didn't find the kids yo be honest....

Poll: Should drivers retake the theory test every 10 years?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

Drivers get where they need to go, but sometimes it seems that we are all abiding by different road rules (for example, the varying ways drivers indicate around a roundabout).
Do you think drivers should be required to take a quick driving theory test every 10 years?

Vote in the poll and share any road rules that you've seen bent! 😱
