POLICE seized a motorbike for the second time in five days after its 17-year-old driver failed to display L-plates.
The Orpington teen, who has a provisional driving licence, had only just collected his silver Gillera Runner 49cc motorbike after it was taken away on March 2 for the same offence.
The bike was also considered unfit for the roads as it had not passed an MOT test.
It was seized for a second time in Bickley on Friday (Mar 6) and taken back to the Charlton car pound.
Head of the Bickley Safer Neighbourhood Team Sergeant Lee Howes said: “Hopefully this will reinforce the clear and unequivocal message that people driving without a licence or insurance, or with a vehicle that is unroadworthy, will be targeted and their cars or bikes will be seized.”
