Police warn motorists over nuisance driving

Police are warning nuisance motorists that their behaviour will not be tolerated, as more snow is expected to fall across the county this evening (Friday).

The warning comes as Kent Police responded to a number of reports of nuisance behaviour during last weekend’s snow fall.

In Ashford, officers are investigating after reports were received of a vehicle "skidding around" a car park in Tannery Lane, at about 10.45pm, on Sunday, January 20.

Sergeant Chris Hughes said: "Anyone considering purposely skidding their vehicles or performing doughnut manoeuvres in snow and icy conditions should think again.

"Not only is this nuisance behaviour a driving offence, but it is dangerous and someone could get seriously injured or even killed.

"Motorists found to be causing a nuisance could face having their vehicle seized and issued a fine, or even appear before magistrates."
