‘It is incidents such as these that prompted us to set up Operation Staysail, the Force’s response to car rallies, about two years ago, as they endanger the public and can cause a significant amount of disruption to local residents.
‘On this occasion, Sobiechowski endangered a number of people and has now been disqualified from driving.
“As we have said previously, we recognize that genuine car enthusiasts gather lawfully and do so in a manner that does not cause inconvenience to local residents.
“However, we will continue to focus on those who break the law and ensure they are vigorously dealt with and brought to justice.”
