If they use the bikes to catch cagers on their phones Iam all for it.
What is the general opinion on here?

I guessed something like this was going to happen, i've seen a group of police going through colchester under instruction on a number of occasions, just sorry it's taken so long for some dam idiot to realise what was needed, maybe this is the start of things to come, more ploice on the roads should equal fewer dumb ar5es on mobiles, cutting up, lane hopping/hogging etc etc.
I live in Essex but work in Suffolk by the way, although i'm Suffolk born & bread.
