Anti social riding and noisy exhausts

We know there are a lot of illegal E bikes around the patch. They are a massive issue. They are often modified to reach dangerous speeds and riders do not wear helmets. We have received reports of this taking place in the area of Frogmore field/park and surrounding areas.

We have been increasing patrols when possible, and will be doing ops specific to tackle this issue, along with noisy exhausts.

Use 101 if there is a persistent ongoing problem near you, or on the website if an ongoing issue, or via the emergency telephone 999 if the offence is occurring in front of you. 

Try to make a note of as much information as you can, including registration number, time, place, description of driver, as well as any phone or dashcam footage you might have. 

Personal safety will always be paramount, and please report it to us rather than challenging individuals yourself. They are often very difficult to identify so any unique marks on the bike or clothing would be useful.
