ISSUE: Reports of vehicles being driven antisocially through the town and in local car parks.
ACTION: Eden NPT responded to a recent report of anti-social behaviour. The driver of this vehicle was issues with a section 59 warning and interviewed and reported for without due care and attention after being seen doing donuts. We continue to carry out high visibility patrol in hotspot areas and will take appropriate action and engage. We are also working with Cumbria Fire & Rescue Service who are the lead organisation to deliver educational inputs to young drivers; this has been done on a nighttime in hot spot areas or via school educational inputs. Some businesses within Penrith who have car parks have installed warning signs regarding anti-social behaviour to highlight what is not acceptable.
