Appeal for care on roads after motorcyclist caught doing 103mph

A senior police office has made a plea for care on the roads after a motorcyclist was detected speeding at over 100mph.

PSNI Assistant Chief Constable Stephen Martin, a former police commander in Derry, took to social media to make his appeal after the speed of 103mph was detected in the Portrush-Portstewart-Coleraine triangle where practice has got underway for Saturday’s North West 200 road races.

In a tweet, accompanied by a photograph of the speed detected (pictured), he said: “Some people just won’t listen, so I will ask again – please use our roads sensibly!”
