Schoolies were involved in multiple moped accidents yesterday sparking debate over the safety of the vehicles.

Leanne Tierney

Some of the mopeds the schoolies were driving around, they were being a little crazy. Hopefully the person is all good. But more care and concentrat­ion needs to be taken.

Denise Allen

Perhaps now the council will wake up and realise these scooters are dangerous, especially in the wrong hands.

Danielle Mahoney

Too many of them are too wobbly to be

riding them, either due to lack of experience or intoxicati­on.

Doug Andrew Black

The way they ride with the limited clothing they have on it’s going to hurt when they come off.

James Stuart Sparks

There are all stages of learner drivers in that area at the moment, seriously avoid it if you can.

Johnno Mills

The mopeds are OK if they’re in the right hands.

Leanda Norman

There was a whole group of them in Fern St acting like fools, tooting and yelling and all over the road. No sympathy whatsoever.

Cara McIntyre

The most surprising part of this is that it’s not more common.

Daniel Gold

The only one benefiting here are the moped hires who should be held accountabl­e for hiring to kids with no motorbike experience.
