Nuisance motorcycles.

Issued 04 November 2025

We have carried out high‑visibility patrols in problem areas to locate and stop nuisance motorcycles. Officers have also completed vehicle checks, provided advice to riders, seized vehicles where necessary and dealt with offending riders through either a Court Summons or a Traffic Offence Report (TOR). A TOR is a formal notice used by police to record road‑traffic offences. It can lead to points on a licence, a fine, or a requirement to attend a driver‑education course, depending on the offence.
