The interim injunction prohibits people from participating as a driver, rider or passenger in a gathering of two or more people leading to motor racing, motor stunts or other dangerous or obstructive driving.
It is in place throughout Wolverhampton, Dudley, Sandwell and Walsall and anyone breaching it will be in contempt of court and could face penalties including imprisonment, a fine or an order to have their assets seized.
“A similar injunction was in force between 2015 and 2021 which helped dramatically reduce instances of street racing across the region, and we are very confident this new interim injunction will have the same positive effect. “These helped us to build what the High Court has recognised to be an overwhelming case for this interim injunction, which will give the authorities the powers they need to crack down on street racing as and when it occurs.”
