The illegal use of high-powered dangerously-fast electric motorbikes is having an impact on towns and cities across the country. Some models can travel at 60 or 70 miles per hour, making them potentially deadly to young, untrained riders. But what can the police actually do to stop them and make sure communities are safe? In this episode of 5 Minutes On, the BBC’s west of England correspondent, Dan Johnson, has been given exclusive access to a special police operation in South Bristol targeting e-motorbikes.
