Bullshit. Do they check? A working bike still has more value as a bike than it does as scrap. By recycling it you are simply destroying pretty much all the value that has been added by turning the raw materials into a complex machine.
In any case this only cover bikes that have been abandoned and doesn't cover bikes that might have been found in house clearances following someone's death etc.
