POLICE and fire officers stopped 14 motorists and cyclists during an undercover road safety operation in Crewe and Congleton.

Covert officers wearing body worn cameras mounted patrols along Nantwich Road and in Congleton at West Road and along the Clayton Bypass.

They stopped drivers, as well as cyclists, making their way along the routes who were putting each others safety at risk last Thursday (December 3).

None of those stopped were charged with any offences or issued with warnings, but the officers spent time educating them about the dangers of their behaviours.

In total, they stopped seven motorists and seven riders during the one-day operation.

A Cheshire Police spokesperson said: "Riders and drivers were stopped for offences and education, but no enforcement was handed out

"All of those who were stopped were extremely positive and engaged with police and fire officers as well as volunteers."
