A dispersal order has been issued
Officers have announced a major crackdown on 'reckless' driving in a Greater Manchester town. Greater Manchester Police has announced a dispersal order will be in force across parts of Wigan this weekend.
Drivers caught flouting the law in Wigan this weekend risk having their cars seized. And police are warning that similar measures will be used 'for the foreseeable future' as cops look to eradicate 'selfish' driving in the town. A spokesperson for GMP Wigan West wrote on Facebook: "A dispersal notice and large scale policing operation utilising specialist resources will be in place on the Wigan Division this weekend. This is so we are able to enforce a dispersal order that has been implemented following weeks of anti-social behaviour by reckless and selfish individuals who are intent on travelling to the area in order to race and travel high speeds on our public roads.
