The Motorcycle Action Group (MAG UK) have expressed their serious concerns to the Home Office regarding their proposals to increase, by almost 300%, the statutory charges for the removal, storage and disposal of motorcycles by the police. Under the current arrangements the police can charge £105 for the recovery of a motorcycle considered to be abandoned illegally, dangerously or obstructively parked, or broken down. They can then charge up to £12 a day for storage until the motorcycle is reclaimed by its rightful owner.
