NOTING "an extraordinary council meeting" article about the never- ending issue of scrambler bikes being misused by moronic riders.
For all of the past/present authorities new initiatives, will it turn out again as a stab in the dark, being sucked into the "black hole" of useless measures?
Issues may decrease for a few days or couple of weeks if you’re lucky.
If police attendance 'may' occur, then it's a case of normal service is resumed, as on the Noctorum estate, scrambler/motorbikes/motor scooters, blasting around at top speed on footpaths/past ally ways etc, etc.
Yes, all reasons have been given by authorities, as to the difficulty involved in apprehending offenders.
So do we as descent social citizens just put up and shut up?
Not withstanding the 15-20 minute wait for an operator answer on 101 (as I have frequently experienced), then ending my call in total frustration, as when does a non emergency call, turn into an emergency call?
I fully agree, as any sensible person would, the main answer is more staffing of our authorities, but at what point in social unrest/ frustration, caused by those mindless yobs, will real remedial action be taken, or do we have to get used to it, as part of today’s society, when the mob/cutbacks rule our lives, 'Anarchy'?.
