The surge in illegal off-road bike use across multiple Ipswich locations has prompted police to seek public assistance in tackling the safety concerns and illegal behaviour.

Police have identified five key issues with the off-road bike riders:

- No insurance
- No registration plates
- No helmets
- Dangerous and illegal driving
- Complete disregard for public safety and personal safety

Ipswich Police are asking residents to report any sightings to Suffolk Police, particularly if they have CCTV footage that could assist with investigations.
