Our unmarked motorcycle was in South Devon again today. Here is an example of how not to ride. 80mph in a 40 limit, overtaking cars and riding on the solid whites. Would you do this? How would you judge the rider?

β€œIt’ll be alright” -No it won’t.

Drink driving. Just don’t. There’s no excuse. Not one.

This Teenager is lucky to be alive.

Another day on and a motorcycle rider putting himself and others in danger on the A39 in Cornwall. Excess 100mph and crossing solid white lines.

Riding or driving like this will not be tolerated and the reason why we use Devon & Cornwall and Dorset Police Drone Team and motorcycles

Unmarked Police Motorcycles were used in the South Devon area today enforcing the rules of the road. Here are two bikers who were caught. One of them was speeding at 60mph in a 40mph zone past the site of a recent motorcycle fatality.

Somebody chose to not take our advice of checking their bike was in a roadworthy condition before enjoying the bank holiday sunshine No MOT and surprisingly the number plate must've fallen off on the ride
Please check your bike over before taking it out !!

The driver of this vehicle was stopped due to having no operational lights on the trailer attached and incorrect rear registration plate. Turns out they had an expired invalidating their insurance.
