A police crackdown on nuisance boy racers is set to continue for another weekend.

Police attended the Medway City Estate over the weekend to enforce a dispersal order.

The occupants of about 20 vehicles were stopped by officers and reminded to drive responsibly following reports of anti social behaviour in previous weeks.

A drug driving arrest was made on Saturday after a 19-year-old man from Strood was stopped on suspicion of driving under the influence of cannabis. He has since been released pending further inquiries.

Officers did not encounter anyone driving in a dangerous manner over the operation from Friday night until Sunday.

Inspector Liz Jarvis, from Medway Community Safety Unit, said: "The dispersal order was in place to prevent anti-social behaviour and across the whole weekend, we received one report of nuisance behaviour - a reduction from the previous weekend where four calls were received. We will continue to monitor activity at the location and will not hesitate to take similar action, if needed.

"To help us gain an accurate picture of issues for a particular area, I would encourage anyone affected by antisocial behaviour to report their concerns to us on 101 or by using the online reporting facility on the Kent Police website."

The industrial park has become a notorious meeting place for drivers in souped-up vehicles, both cars and motorbikes.

Under the order, any group of two or more people found causing or likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress could be dispersed by a uniformed officer.

Children under 16, who were not accompanied by a responsible adult between 9pm and 6am, could also be taken back home.

Just a day after the police action was announced at least 17 people were injured after two vehicles crashed at a "car cruise" and ploughed into spectators in Stevenage, Hertfordshire.

In May emergency services were called to an incident in Sir Thomas Longley Road a main road on the estate, following reports of a collision involving four vehicles, two of which caught fire.

A fresh dispersal order will be in force over the weekend from 6pm on Friday, July 26.
