    Detailed Motorway response today. Please remember there is no such thing as the "fast lane!"😠 If you are not overtaking another vehicle, move back to the nearside/Lane 1 or dare I say it "slow lane." We will be stopping drivers who fail to do this today. Constable N

    This lovely Lambo came to Road Policing Interceptors notice due to the missing front registration plate. The driver has been issued a £30.00, and provided with advice on how to display a number plate in future.

    We are mindful of the increase in cyclists on the roads with the brighter mornings and evenings. Please remember to give them enough room when overtaking. Allow at least 1.5m when passing cyclists and other vulnerable road users. #2WheelOperation

    For information of NI motorists. There are significant issues on the M1 motorway with multiple trees down blocking lanes. Officers are deployed and working with partner agencies to get the roads cleared as a priority. Slow down, and be hazard aware. Stay safe.

    Another thankfully rare incident... A driver was stopped earlier today after being spotted using blue and red flashing lights to pass other vehicles on the M1... if you’re idiotic enough to buy something like this to use on a public road, expect a day in Court! JW

    Operation Close Pass is underway today on the north coast. We have already had to speak to a motorist who “close passed” our plain clothes Police cyclist. The road is a shared space - If you encounter a cyclist today, please give them room. #KeepingPeopleSafe

    This morning a cyclist was stopped in Belfast by Mahon Rd RPU for breaching a red light at a pedestrian crossing. Remember traffic lights are there for a reason - and the legal requirement to stop at red lights applies to both cyclists and motorists, breaching it is an offence.

    During our recent close-pass op we stopped 103 vehicles who didn’t leave 1.5m between their vehicle and a cyclist. 55 motorists were spoken to, 16 motorists were given advice and one motorist was stopped for being on their phone while overtaking a cyclist and will be prosecuted

    Yesterday, one cruising machine from Roads Policing, Steeple, stopped beside another cruising machine from Royal Caribbean. I know which one I’d prefer to be sitting in. Lol. Great to see cruise ships and visitors returning to our shores.
