🚓𝗢𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗼: 𝗖𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝗔𝗻𝘁𝗶-𝗦𝗼𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗔𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝗗𝗲𝗿𝗯𝘆𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲

Since launching in July 2023, Operation Shango has delivered over 33,000 hours of targeted patrols, using crime data to deploy officers where they’re needed most.

🚗 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝗞𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗗𝗲𝗿𝗯𝘆𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝗥𝗼𝗮𝗱𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲

Deputy Police and Crime Commissioner Dr. Fatima Eltinay met with officers from the Casualty Reduction Enforcement Support Team (CREST) for the first time to learn more about the vital work they do to protect motorists and communities across Derbyshire.

From targeted enforcement to raising awareness, CREST plays a key role in tackling the Fatal 4 — the biggest contributing factors to serious and fatal collisions:

🔹 Speeding
🔹 Drink or drug driving
🔹 Not wearing a seatbelt
🔹 Using a mobile phone at the wheel

The Deputy PCC heard first-hand how CREST officers are using intelligence-led deployments, education, and enforcement to reduce risk, change behaviour, and keep people safe on our roads.

👮‍♂️ Our shared commitment: Safer roads. Fewer collisions. Stronger communities.

🚨  𝗗𝗲𝗿𝗯𝘆𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘇𝗲𝗿𝗼 𝘁𝗼𝗹𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗮𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵 𝘁𝗼 𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗹 𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘀

Since the seize and dispose policy was introduced in November 2024, Derbyshire Constabulary — fully supported by the PCC — has removed 712 illegal e scooters from our streets as part of a tough and proactive enforcement drive. 🛴

Under the updated policy, officers and PCSOs now seize e scooters at first interaction, with vehicles sent for disposal and riders potentially facing prosecution. Every PCSO across the county has been fully trained and granted the same powers as officers, helping the force respond more robustly to community concerns. 

🔔 A reminder: It is illegal to use a privately owned e scooter in any public space — including roads, pavements, parks, and town centres. They can only be used on private land with the landowner’s permission. 

This record level of enforcement reflects the strong joint stance taken by Derbyshire Constabulary and Nicolle to keep communities safe and reduce the risks posed by illegal and dangerous riding.

👉 A safer, stronger Derbyshire starts with removing illegal vehicles from our streets.
