Anger over motorbikes 'pulling wheelies' and riding on pavements in Gedling

Nottinghamshire Police officers are dealing with an increase of people riding motorbike dangerously. The Gedling neighbourhood policing team has seen an increase of reports from residents regarding drivers pulling wheelies in the road and travelling along pavements in the Gedling, Carlton and Colwick areas.

One of the affected streets includes Waverley Avenue, Gedling. Councillor Mike Adams, Carlton East Councillor for Nottinghamshire County Council, posted about the issue on social media. He stated" Recently it has come to my attention that some unlicensed motorbikes have been driving down the road, pulling wheelies. Also driving on the pavement at times as well. This is incredibly dangerous and is risking injuring members of the public. This has been reported to the Gedling Police Inspector and action is being taken."

The area’s neighbourhood policing inspector, Inspector Mark Stanley, of Nottinghamshire Police, warned those involved about the consequences of their actions.
