Policing teams tackle dangerous and anti-social driving on Oxfordshire’s roads

Dear resident,

We were out on the A4074 on Sunday targeting those driving recklessly, at excess speed or in an anti-social manner, following concerns raised to us by the local community and an increase in reports of speeding and reckless driving in the area.

The initiative forms part of a broader plan to deploy both overt and covert tactics designed to create safer conditions for all road users.

Across a period of three hours, 20 speeding tickets were issued. We also visited people suspected to be involved in anti-social behaviour on the roads, and section 59 warnings were issued to those engaging in anti-social and irresponsible driving.

You can expect to see continued enforcement activity and a police presence in the area in the coming weeks as our wider plan unfolds to make Oxfordshire’s roads safer.

Please continue to report incidents to us via our website or by calling 101. In an emergency, or if a crime is in progress, please call 999.
