Worthing to Boxhill and back through Ockley, Ewhurst, Cranleigh, Dunsfold, Petworth and Whiteways. Fortunately the gritters must have avoided West Sussex and Surrey so a beautiful days riding for 100 miles. Happy Days and hope you all managed to enjoy a ride out somewhere. I know this is a Ducati Forum but those BMW S1000's are off the scale beautiful.
I was just thinking that myself as you posted. Google says it’s a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) I’m guessing to cover anti social riding, noisy exhausts etc?
Again from Google. A public space protection order (PSPO) can give local councils and police additional powers to tackle anti-social behaviour in specific locations to regulate activities that are having a detrimental effect on the local community. The PSPO is enforced by police officers, police community support officers and council officers. A police officer, police community support officer or council officer (JET officer) can instruct a person to stop the prohibited behaviour in the PSPO area and/or require them to leave. Failure to comply could result in a fine or prosecution.
Probably the monitoring of driving by the Police is the beginning, with noise being an obvious flash point. Once the "problem" has been confirmed by Police, CCTV cameras, noise meters, etc follow rapidly. The same happened in Stoke in an area "plagued" with cars cruising the roads...
It seems Police can take action under this section, with no first warning. https://www.motorcyclenews.com/news/2025/june/proposed-changes-to-section-59-laws/
