Police in Batley have launched a policing operation to tackle off-roads nuisance bikes and quads on the town’s roads.
The operation has been put in place following a number of concerns raised by the local community about these types of vehicles on the district's roads.
In the first two days of the operation, two bikes have been seized and three people are being summoned to court.
Sergeant Chris Field, of Batley and Spen NPT, leading the operation, said: "Nuisance bikes can cause distress and anti-social behaviour as well as a danger to the public and their riders. Warnings will be issued to anyone seen riding a bike in an anti-social manner, using an off-road bike on the road or causing a danger to other road users. My officers will be using their full scope of powers and will seize these bikes as appropriate which often leads to these being crushed and disposed of."
