Warnings issued to anti-social drivers in Yapton

Police are tackling issues with anti-social driving in Yapton.

Over the last month, calls have increased across the area of young people driving mopeds on pavements loudly and recklessly.

It is believed that this is happening frequently between 12pm and midnight, particularly 6pm until 9pm.

Two Section 59 warnings have been issued to a 16-year-old boy and a 17-year-old boy, both from Yapton.

The warning means that if the driver is given another warning within 12 months, their vehicle will be seized. 

If the original vehicle is stopped, regardless of the driver, it will also be seized. 

If you have any information or would like to report a crime, contact police online or call 101 quoting Operation Precinct.

Always dial 999 in an emergency.
