Request

“1) Please could you detail what, if any, training is given to police officers as to the regulations around the use of single (long) seat agricultural quad bikes on the road?

2) Please could you tell me how many agricultural quad bikes have been stopped for being on the road illegally in the past 12 months?

I am especially interested in the illegal usage of agricultural quad bikes on the road by hunt support (out of area, carrying passengers, no number plate etc.) and if you could split those figures out I would be very grateful."
