Operation Adonis.
The above operation has been running since the 1st of April 2009 its main purpose being to target the anti social use of off road bikes, quad bikes and mini mottos. A number of tactics have been used including covert patrols and use of the force off road motorcycle section, over 15 warning notices have been issued and 6 bikes have been seized. A ten percent reduction in calls in relation to these types of incidents has been achieved. Although the operation is now complete we will still continue to target those who use bikes in an anti social manner warning notices and seizures will continue to be used.
School Parking.
We have recently distributed posters around the Trimdons and to all school premises in relation to parking in and around schools at drop off and pick up times. Can all drivers be considerate as to where they park at schools taking into account yellow road markings and not parking across access to private drive ways? If this can be achieved then the issuing of fixed penalty tickets will not be required and road safety will continue to improve.
