Gloucester Township Police has recently seen a dangerous trend of bicycles swerving into oncoming traffic and moving motor vehicles, and/ or blocking traffic in Gloucester Township. Some incidents are being recorded by other riders involved to upload and share on social media sites like TikTok and Instagram. This is a fad across the country with deadly consequences. Most offenders are juveniles who may not understand how hazardous this activity is. GTPD is asking parents to educate their kids on bicycle safety and monitor their child’s social media. Remind your children while out on their bicycles, they have to obey the same laws of the road just like a motor vehicle.If you witness this illegal and dangerous activity in progress, please call 911.
