Police said evening and weekend ‘car meets’ at the retail park are common
and officers said hundreds of people attended last Sunday.
In a Facebook post, South Yorkshire Police’s operational support unit said
although the ‘vast majority’ of those at the meet were ‘enjoying themselves’
a ‘small minority were causing problems for the rest’.
They found some motorists using the Dearne Valley Parkway as a race track
while ‘hundreds’ of spectators lined the route.
One uninsured motorist in a Ford Fiesta was stopped after being caught
driving at over 100mph. In a post on Twitter the unit said: “Te Roads
Policing Group are now engaged at Cortonwood and the surrounding highways.
“We want car enthusiasts to enjoy their cars, but only in a safe and lawful
manner. We will take a zero tolerance approach to poor driving and
offences.”
