Labour promises new police powers to curb noisy off-road bikes

Party would boost powers to remove dirt and quad bikes from streets in crackdown on antisocial behaviour

Labour is promising new powers for police to quickly scrap noisy dirt and quad bikes causing havoc in neighbourhoods as part of a crackdown on antisocial behaviour.

Keir Starmer's party also wants to raise on-the-spot fines for using off-road bikes or ignoring officers' instructions to stop, which are as low as 100.
