Statement from Nicola Richards MP:
“I'm pleased to see that the injunction against car cruising in the Black Country has been extended.
“Racing on our streets is dangerous and it has tragically cost people their lives. The injunction gives police the power to arrest people taking part anywhere in the Black Country, a power they would not otherwise have.
“Whilst it is an important short-term measure, it has to be part of a wide-ranging operation to drive this dangerous activity off our streets. I'll be working with the police and pushing local councils to do even more to tackle this dangerous behaviour on our roads.”
