Imagine going to the park with your kids and seeing a scooter zipping through the playground equipment. Though it may seem farfetched, that’s exactly the scene that took place at a popular park in Miaoli. Two minors drove their electric scooters into the premises and wreaked havoc at the play place. They did wheelies on the padded areas, and even loaded a scooter onto a seesaw. Locals say their actions are extremely inconsiderate, as the place is meant for kids. They are facing fines of NT$6,000, and potentially even a jail sentence if they caused damage to public property.

A scooter zips by, gradually lifting its front wheel to perform a spectacular wheelie.

But hang on. This is a kid’s playground! And as if riding a scooter in the play place weren’t enough, the reckless rider rolled it onto the equipment!

One person stands on one side of the seesaw, while the other pushes down with the scooter on the other side, happily bobbing up and down. Surely the weight can’t be good for the equipment, which is designed for kids, not vehicles. A local posted a video of the intrusion online, sarcastically remarking it must have been a pressure test.

Disproves of stunt
Think of the kids in the park! They’re damaging public property. And it’s dangerous, for others and for themselves.

This goes against the usage rules. They’re wrecking the place.

Police tracked down the riders. They were both minors and are facing fines of up to NT$6,000, and if damage was caused, the maximum penalty could be up to five years in prison.
