AN “Intensive” road safety operation over the Easter weekend led to 80 traffic offences being recorded, most in Craven, police have said. Incidents led to arrests, vehicle seizures, unsafe drivers taken off the road and the recovery of a stolen quad bike. Units were deployed to key areas during a special Roads Policing Group operation, codenamed Op Boundary, to reduce collisions, target road-related offences and tackle other crime. The Craven/Dales area was a particular focus due to the type and volume of bank holiday traffic. Officers dealt with unlicensed and uninsured drivers, unroadworthy vehicles, drink and drug driving, speeding, dangerous driving and intercepted criminals who use the road network. They also responded to several serious collisions that left motorists in hospital with serious injuries.
