Neighbourhoods blighted by off-road bikers - but GMP can't chase them as they don't wear helmets
Neighbourhoods in Oldham are being blighted by ‘illegal dirt bikes’ being ridden at ‘all hours’ and a spate of antisocial behaviour and crime, councillors have been told.
During public question time, a question submitted by resident Joshua Charters asked: “In St James Ward there has been a lot of antisocial behaviour and crime over the past few months, with people riding illegal dirt bikes at all hours in Derker and Sholver and cars being stolen regularly in Sholver. She added: “Unfortunately the GMP specialist off-road bikes team is a very small force-wide resource which is in significant demand. Riding off-road bikes on the road is a very dangerous activity and many riders do not wear headgear – this restricts the opportunities for pursuit and enforcement at the time, even by the specialist team.
