Last night police attended a disruptive unauthorised car meet in a supermarket carpark in High Wycombe.

A minority of individuals were witnessed drifting, doing burnouts and doughnuts and causing a risk to the general public who were still using the car park to visit the open supermarket.

Police tactically pounced on two high-performance BMWs seen participating in this behaviour. The drivers were both reported and their cars were seized for being involved in the anti-social driving.

A further two drivers were stopped and reported with another driver arrested for drug driving.

A spokesperson for Thames Valley Police said "This level of behaviour will not be tolerated on the streets or public places. The disruption is far-reaching with residents across the town hearing the commotion.

"We are car enthusiasts ourselves, but these meets are not authorised and lack any safety precautions. Any loss of control or collisions can be catastrophic for the attending crowd.

"Additionally, your car insurance will be invalidated if you participate in this behaviour (read your policy), and it’s worth considering that if someone crashes into your car whilst driving in this manner they might not have cover to repair your car or injuries."
