    Anti-social driving

    crashed carAnti-social driving includes vehicles doing wheel spins, racing each other, skidding around off road and doing wheelies. It covers activity not just on our roads but in public open spaces.

    If you see anti-social driving please:

    1. Call 999 if it is an emergency (which this kind of driving would be) 
    2. Write down as much information as possible: for example the date, time, location, registration number, driver or riders name and what that driver or rider was doing which you consider to be anti-social. If you can not get a number plate or a name of the driver, please note any distinguishing features which might help identify who they are.

    • the Roads Policing Unit can instantly seize a vehicle which has no insurance
    • Mini-Motos used on a road will be classed as a motor vehicle and need a driving licence and insurance as well as a crash helmet, MOT and Tax Disc
    • anyone caught illegally riding a Mini-Moto could have their vehicle crushed, and get points on their licence - even if they aren't yet old enough to hold one
    • if a child is awarded points on a future licence as a result of driving a mini-moto illegally, some insurance companies will refuse to insure them once they have passed their driving test. As a minimum, their insurance premium will be vastly increased
