RoadsafeLondon
Roadsafe London is an information and Intelligence gathering tool. It is the Metropolitan Police response to requests to provide a means for members of the public to advise us about criminal, nuisance and anti-social behaviour on the roads of London. It is part of the Road Crime Intelligence Unit and staffed by experienced traffic officers.
We want to know about people who; -
- Drive under the influence of drink or drugs
- Drive with no insurance
- Drive without a licence or whilst disqualified from driving
- Speed
- Use an un-roadworthy vehicle
We also want to know about:-
- Locations where there is a problem with anti-social driving e.g. vehicles racing on public roads.
A simple to use form available here RoadsafeLondon form will allow you to report your concerns directly to us. Please provide as much information as possible. Please make the information as specific as possible, particularly around regard to days, times and locations. Your information will be used to improve the Intelligence picture about individuals and/or locations. It may assist us to effectively resolve the issue that you have raised.
