I’m confused. Were they pulled over for having an e-bike in those areas, or because the e-bike was modified? This would change the context quite a bit.
Probably for riding what is effectively an electric motorbike down a pedestrianised street.
It’s Derby, so I’m guessing they were riding like dickheads (which happens regardless of them being electric or not), were stopped and were then found to have modified the bikes into something that requires a license and insurance, meaning they could be confiscated.
Derby city centre is mostly pedestrianised, as are a lot of UK city centres.
St Peters Street is one of those areas. That’s why they were pulled over.
