The footage was captured at 11.20am this morning, by a driver who spoke of an "epidemic" of off-road vehicles causing "mayhem" in the area.

Many of the bikes are without plates, meaning they are untraceable.

Members of the group were also reportedly spotted doing wheelies in front of oncoming cars.
