WIBU to (can’t believe I’m going to say this) log it with 101?

I live on a busy road and a lot of cars and people walk down it. For the past month or so teenagers/young adults have been speeding up and down the road on quad bikes and doing wheelies on motorbikes causing cars to slam on their breaks and the people on the bikes swerving out the way and riding on the pavement as well? Seriously think there is going to be a crash (I couldn’t care less if they got injured and they would as they are wearing normal clothes and no helmet) but worried that the sensible driver might get hurt or even a pedestrian. Have emailed my local MP (who is brilliant and very popular in the area) twice but have had no reply so am thinking twice about voting for him now. It doesn’t warrant a 999 call but should I (cliche) log it with 101?

To the best of my knowledge this is exactly the type of thing 101 is there for. I don't think you'd be unreasonable, sounds very unsafe.

Thanks funny. Annoyingly (ironically) the noise has now stopped so I think they’ve moved on for now but the next time I hear or see one I’ll give them a call

We had a massive problem with this last summer 😩 I logged it every time I heard them, other neighbours did too. It’s anti social behaviour and I bet their bikes:quads are not insured or taxed!! The police caught them eventually and impounded all the bikes 😂

Yes Bubbles and my other reasoning was that if they get into any crash I can say with 109% assurance that they would not be the type to stick around and swap insurance details (not that they’d have any to swap) Angry
