With the beautiful days, the rodeos resume
With the arrival of fine weather, urban rodeos are in the sights of the police and gendarmes of Essonne.
In August 2021, a police officer from the Val d'Yerres anti-crime brigade (BAC) hit by a two-wheeler in Vigneux-sur-Seine was issued with seven days of total incapacity for work (ITT).
That same summer, a note from the Minister of the Interior asked the boss of the national police to focus on the fight against urban rodeos.
In particular in Île-de-France: between August 2020 and August 2021, the police seized 343 two-wheelers in the departments of the outer suburbs, i.e. almost a quarter of the 1,466 confiscations at the national level.
