Driver caught speeding across Wearmouth Bridge at 80mph during lockdown.

Ray Knight: Police want to have a drive up Hylton Rd. Most drivers think they're in a Grand Prix, doing 70/80 even over a crossing. Any child crossing the road wouldn't stand a chance.

Dave Knightley: This what I was trying to say last week to a lady when a car and motor bike crashed cause the roads are clear idiots think they can put their foot down.

Luke Kirtley: Because there's literally no police on the roads I've been out nearly every day for personal reasons and I've seen like 2-3 police cars since the lockdown began
