Sounds like they're attempting to help but they've gotten the wording all wrong IMO. You aren't allowed to have 2 friends anymore

Its all the twats riding in big groups on peds and mx bikes and quads, causing havoc on the streets goading the old bill, that bringing all the attention. Now they target the easy prey... us! because they cant deal with the idiots.... Typical..... "sigh"

Click bait from MCN.

We have a problem with car cruising round here at weekends and sometimes hear them racing round the roads at 2-3am in the morning.

We just don't have enough police to enforce the laws we have anymore.

Got the same near me... in the morning all i can see is tyre marks on every round about, where they have been doughnutting them !!!
Not just a few, they obviously go around and around loads of times.... and not a police person in sight.....
