Police Halloween Crackdown On Motorcyclists Driving ‘Recklessly’ In London In Organised ‘Ride Out’ Events<\/b>
\nPolice are planning a crackdown on anti-social behaviour over the Halloween period carried out by \u201cruthless\u201d motorcyclists in central London.<\/p>\n

The operation comes after police attended \u201cride out\u201d events for the past two years, which saw large numbers of motorcyclists gathered in several locations across the capital and rest of UK.<\/p>\n

The Metropolitan Police Service said the drivers\u2019 intent was to \u201ccause disruption and anti-social behaviour\u201d.<\/p>\n

Such incidents include motorcyclists driving \u201crecklessly\u201d, on the wrong side of the road, through red lights and across pavements. Police said that many of the motorcycles used were stolen.<\/p>\n

Police said that many of those taking part in the ride outs are linked to the group\u00a0\u2018UK Bike Life\u2019.<\/p>\n

Superintendent Tania Coulson, spokesperson for the Met, said: \u201cIn the past, these groups have caused criminal damage to petrol stations and put themselves and members of the public at great risk by driving recklessly in large groups through the streets of London.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know that some people may see the event advertised and think they are joining like-minded enthusiasts on a lawful ride. This is not the case. They drive ruthlessly and carry out stunts on the road.<\/p>\n

\u201cOfficers will be out across London throughout the Halloween period and will deploy a number of police tactics to prevent riders from driving dangerously.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe intend to prevent disorder and crime caused by riders and we will be dealing robustly with offenders.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny groups or individuals who cause disruption will be arrested.\u201d<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s crackdown comes after several arrests were made last year when more than 200 motorcyclists gathered for a Halloween \u201cride out\u201d in Birmingham and Solihull.<\/p>\n

During the incident, 100 masked bikers surrounded a police van in Yorkminster Drive in Chelmsley Wood and the fire service also reported that a group had attempted to stop them from responding to an emergency call<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile in Leeds, a group of about 50 people on off-road motorcycles and quad bikes brought a busy road to a standstill.
