Vehicles can be heard across West Bridgford travelling at speed in the A52 most weekend evneings.
Nottinghamshire Police said:
“We were called to the Nottingham Knight Island on the A52 at just after 9 pm.
“A number of cars were present and there had been a very minor road traffic collision.
“There were no injuries. The car was cleared and the other vehicles were moved on.”
West Bridgford South County Councillor Jonathan Wheeler told the Wire: ‘These activities are putting ordinary road users at risk as shown by the crash.
“I do speak regularly with the police on the issue and am writing again to National Highways, who is responsible for the A52 and A453 to ask them to look at measures they can do to stop these speeding vehicles.”
“I know the police are looking at what more they can do and we will keep working together to find a way to stop this once and for all.’
Police have taken to the roads in a bid to clamp down on large groups of car enthusiasts causing issues for residents.
Officers from the Rushcliffe neighbourhood policing team have been cracking down on the large gatherings after receiving complaints from local residents.
The road crime team took to the streets in October – patrolling Rushcliffe but paying particular attention to the A52 between Gamston and Edwalton and the A453 Ratcliffe-on-Soar.
Multiple reports of residents’ concerns have been made recently of inconsiderate driving, an increase in noise, and vehicles causing issues for other road users and local people.
