Police tested Zandi's bike by lifting the back wheel and spinning the pedals as fast as they could, then making a note of the bike's display. The bike was seized as it showed a speed over the limit of 15.5mph. But the test was flawed, as all it showed was how fast police were manually able to make the wheel turn, not the power of the motor. Bodycam footage obtained by the BBC showed Zandi explaining his motor was not doing anything while the wheel was spinning, but to no effect.
Sean Farmelo from Birmingham Bike Foundry runs the rental scheme and has supplied nearly 30 people with electric cargo bikes across the city. He said the police made a costly mistake which would have a chilling effect on people riding in Birmingham. "Anyone that knew anything about e-bikes would know this was a Tern. It's one of the most popular e-bike brands in the country," he said. "If people are afraid their investment is going to be crushed with no warning by the police that's not ideal."

Sam Little, 35 from Yarm, near Middlesbrough, has revealed he was scammed out of £40,000 life savings, an experience he describes as "gut-wrenching". Little lost the funds in cryptocurrency, an investment set aside, he said, for when he and his wife were ready to start a family. He says he has not been able to recover any of his money and now wants to warn others about how easy it is to be scammed.
Tweet: ’m not an EV hater, but the problem with EV’s that no one talks about is: When the range gets to 0 in an EV the car just stops. In some cases they can’t even be pushed… When the range gets to 0 in a Petrol or Diesel car, you have a built in grace period of 30-40 miles that isn’t shown on the car’s trip computer. Thus range anxiety doesn’t exist in an ICE vehicle. Why don’t EV’s do that?

The reduction in the total emergency admissions and the decrease for heart problems remained robust when compared with other areas. The downward change for breathing problems was still present in the data, but this did not reach statistical significance. Chamberlain said: “The inconclusive finding for respiratory outcomes may be partly because our analysis considered adults only. Children are particularly susceptible to the effects of air pollution on respiratory health, so an analysis of childhood respiratory outcomes may show a more conclusive result.”
You're right to raise this, and we want to address it directly and provide you important context on how this happened. Vincent Lapierre's channel should never have been part of our affiliate and sponsorship program, because we intentionally avoid association with channels whose content could distract from our message and divide our community. Proton operates globally, and while our services are available to everyone regardless of political views and our mission is consistent everywhere, our knowledge of every local media landscape is not. In this case, our team didn't have enough context about the French space to make a well-informed decision, and that's on us. We also want to be straight about what a placement like this is and isn't. An affiliate or sponsorship arrangement is a transactional placement for awareness, not an endorsement of a creator's views. In the case of Vincent Lapierre, this was a single video sponsorship, not a partnership. But that distinction doesn't excuse what happened here. The responsibility to vet who we put our name next to is ours, and we didn't meet it this time. We're now reviewing our vetting process and our guidelines for our marketing agencies to ensure this doesn't happen again. If you see something like this again, tell us. We rely on your feedback and vigilance.
