A driver has had their vehicle seized after causing concern among locals in the city.

Police were called to Britannia Road in Norwich on Tuesday night following reports of antisocial behaviour related to a vehicle in the area.

Officers made their way to the scene near Mousehold Heath and carried out an investigation, where the vehicle was seized for having no insurance. 

Nuisance drivers have caused chaos across the city, including Britannia Road, and police were called to 200 boy racer incidents in 2022.

Norwich City Council agreed to implement a city-wide Public Spaces Protection Order last year which would ban anti-social activities.

These include excessive speeding and revving of engines, loud music, wheelspins and doughnuts.  

Anyone who breaches the PSPO could be fined £100, which can go up to £1,000 if they fail to pay.

Police have said "they will continue to respond to concerns from people who live in the area and deal with any offences".
