Anti-social use of vehicles (inconsiderate driving, noise nuisance)

We have been engaging with local communities and the parish council to identify common themes that are arising, identify the issues, so we can take action. We are aware that this issue is particularly prevalent over the summer months in areas surrounding large retail outlets. As such, we will be increasing our presence, taking positive action by way of tickets, warnings and seizures over the next three months. We will also be approaching and working with local retailers to provide a joined up approach.

On 22/6/25 a vehicle was seized at the location for document offences and a number of s.59 warnings were issued.

Anti-social use of vehicles, including inconsiderate driving and noise nuisance.

We will target the anti-social and unlawful use of motor vehicles that causes harm, distress, or disruption in our communities. This includes reckless driving, illegal street racing, excessive noise, and vehicles being used inappropriately in residential areas, parks, or pedestrian zones. Our approach combines proactive policing, intelligence-led enforcement, and community collaboration to create safer streets and public spaces. This will be the local focus for the next three months.
