A gang of teenagers on e-bikes have been captured hooning down streets and even a golf club on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, sparking fears it’s only a matter of time before there’s another fatality.
In the bustling streets of Cronulla, a lively scene unfolds as an exuberant group on wheels takes over the main road. The spectacle is both thrilling and alarming, with some riders executing wheelies while others dangerously zip down the wrong side, eventually cascading into a busy intersection.
Harold Scruby, the chief executive of the Pedestrian Council of Australia, was quick to describe the chaotic scene as “anarchy,” highlighting the potential hazards posed by such reckless behavior.

Meanwhile, on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, another video surfaces showing a youthful e-bike gang bringing traffic to a halt in North Manly. The incident has left locals concerned, with resident Toby Martin remarking that it is “a fatality waiting to happen.”
On Sydney’s Northern Beaches, a baby-faced e-bike gang stopped traffic at North Manly in more video.
Local Toby Martin called it “a fatality waiting to happen”.
A teenage crew took their antics off road captured two days ago ripping up the greens at Long Reef Golf Club at Collaroy.
Martin believes it’s only a matter of time before a pedestrian or e-bike rider dies.
“It’s a highway to hell each way we look at it they’re flying over golf course, roads in large packs each pushing each other on,” he said.
Scrooby said parents could be liable, too.

“Parents have got to realise if they’re children are riding unregistered uninsured motorbikes, they could be liable for any injuries sustained by people they either hit or if the pillion passenger comes off,” he said.
“These things are just motorbikes dressed up as bicycles.”
Legal e-bikes don’t require registration or insurance, there’s no age limit and riders don’t need a licence.
In 2025, there were four deaths involving e-bikes prompting the NSW government to introduce new laws to reduce their legal power and speed.
“Every hour of every day, I’m worried about someone being injured and seriously injured or killed,” Martin said.
