A TEENAGE motorcyclist was taken to hospital after his bike collided with a taxi at a nightlife hotspot.

Ambulance crews were called to Stevenage High Street at about 9.30pm on Saturday after a taxi driver in a silver Peugeot collided with a grey Yamaha motorbike.

The 18-year-old motorcyclist received treatment at the town’s Lister Hospital for his injuries, which an ambulance spokesman said were not life-threatening.
