Moped Crime Wave


Recommended Posts

Gang of about ten racing around Norton area- no licence plates, pulling wheelies, forcing cars to pull off the road!

 

Pretty shocking actually, but I don't think the police will do anything until there is a serious accident....

 

Nothing will be done until someone is killed

I actually think what will probably happen is pretty soon they will **** off the wrong person.........

 

There are already residents in some areas who have had enough and are putting ropes between trees and logs on pathways. Apparently

I received a leaflet about this in the post yesterday from local mp. Do we think anything will be able to stop people from riding mopeds and bikes at 3am? Revving it down mansfield road like they're racing in the moto gp is really starting to wind me up.. not to mention waking my 2 year old up everytime they do it.

Arrests, and prosecutions would help. At the moment the police attitude seems to be "ah, it will go away". They don't even send cars out when you report it! People have clearly had enough and nothing is being done. That's a dangerous and volatile situation.

Paula,

 

I've reported it a few times and nothing happens. Even told them were the bikes are stored.. Nothing happens..

 

I'm sure there are places/people you could give that information to who would probably make sure those bikes weren't used illegally again!

 

It's weird how the police don't care. I wonder why not? If they have information about where the bikes are- why would they not use it? It wouldn't be hard to round them up.
