And physically catching them if they encounter them. However there are trials going on with Smartwater sprays which tags them for a few days/weeks.

Fines in isolation are useless; anybody convicted of these offences should have their eBike confiscated and crushed. And the same should apply to pedal cycle users.

Recycled/refurbished/resold/reused somehow please if the bike is legal to use. Crushing may be dramatic but is a horrible waste!
