Local Priorities Dangerous driving / speeding Message

I wanted to provide you with an update regarding dangerous driving and speeding, which some members around this area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the Met Engage priority survey.

‘Good afternoon Ward Resident,

We hope you are keeping safe and well. I would like to update you on a recent operation we carried out across the Chessington Safer Neighbourhood Wards. The team carried out a traffic operation on Wednesday 06th August 2025 across the wards targeting speeding, mobile phone usage whilst driving and dangerous driving. In total THREE (3) TOR (Traffic Offence Reports) were issued, to individuals being either on their phone whilst driving, or speeding, resulting in a court appearance and points on their licence. ONE (1) vehicle was seized due to the driver having no insurance or drivers licence. And numerous other engagements with drivers which albeit all didn’t result in further police action, strong words of advice were given.

On Thursday 07th August 2025 Chessington Safer Neighbourhoods Officers, Arrested a male again for no insurance and a failed roadside drugs swipe. The arrested males vehicle was seized and impounded.

If someone is driving a motor vehicle, they should always be doing so in a safe and considerate manner. Even momentary lapses in judgement can have life changing or devastating consequences for those in the vehicle or innocent bystanders. 

 

Activities such as street racing, cruising or performing tricks can count as anti-social behaviour. If you are concerned about this in your area, visit our website for the latest guidance and how you can report this. You can also report dangerous driving in your area. 

 

We are working on our brand-new strategy for how we police London and we want your help. Our New Met for London: Phase 2 strategy will guide how we deliver on behalf of Londoners over the next three years, and we want to make sure you have had the chance to have your say. The consultation paper is available online, as well as a survey to let us know what you think. This closes on the 15 September.
