Furious neighbours were woken in the early hours by nuisance bikers revving engines on a residential estate.

The anti-social behaviour, which occurred between 1am and 2am on Saturday in the Trinity Road area of Kennington, Ashford, involved two motorcyclists “riding recklessly and parking on driveways”.

Residents described the disruption as alarming, with older neighbours left “petrified” as both vehicles had "loud exhausts".

“I couldn’t believe what they were doing,” one said. “They woke up a lot of children and adults.”

Police say they responded to reports of the anti-social behaviour and tracked down the two motorcyclists involved.

The riders were stopped, and both received Section 59 warnings.

This measure means that if the bikes are used in a similar manner again, they can be seized by police.
