    Where are you scheduled to have your hip replacement surgery? A friend of mine has just had recent similar surgery in Lampang (where I think you live) and it's a horror story.

    E-scooter rider given ban for drink-driving on Isle of Wight



    A woman is thought to be the first person in the UK to be found guilty of drink-driving while using an e-scooter.

    Kyah Jordan, 20, was almost three times over the limit when she went through a red light and almost crashed into an unmarked police car, a court heard.

    Magistrates heard she had been drinking double shots of rum before riding the e-scooter through Newport on the Isle of Wight in December.

    She was banned from driving for two years and given a community order.

    Magistrates said the e-scooter was classed as a "motor vehicle, the same as a moped, the same as a bus".

    The court heard Jordan had been drinking with friends before they decided to pick up a publicly available e-scooter from a nearby supermarket.

    Prosecutor Liz Miller said that at about 22:30 GMT police in an unmarked armed response vehicle noticed Jordan, who had never ridden an e-scooter before, run a red light before "narrowly" missing them.
