A Kerry TD has called on the government to take action in relation to the use of scrambler bikes.

Sinn Féin TD, Pa Daly says communities have been terrorised by environmental and public order issues due to the improper use of these motorbikes.

The party says its received confirmation from Gardaí, that parts of the Roads Traffic Act (Road Traffic and Roads Act 2023) are still awaiting enactment in relation to scramblers.
