Officials seized over 175 dirt bikes and ATVs over the weekend in addition to arresting dozens of riders and issuing hundreds of summonses, according to police.
“ATV’s & dirt bikes are illegal & dangerous to use in NYC. Your local NYPD cops have been out there, stopping those who refuse to heed warnings & continue to put NYers at risk,” Police Commissioner Dermot Shea wrote on Twitter.
“Use it & lose it,” he added.
According to Shea, the ATVs and dirt bikes were seized on July 24 and 25.
Authorities also arrested 30 riders and wrote summonses for 374 operators.

The privileged white males, Joe Biden & his puppet Chris Wray, were correct. The greatest threat facing this Nation is WHITE supremacy! This is yet another example.
It’s about time. One of these almost crashed into my kids r’l on the Far Rockaway Boardwalk from a rider that was speeding recklessly.
It’s about time! Each time I go to NY I’m worried about getting hit by one of these illegal vehicles which carry no safety properties, carry no insurance and the riders – most under-age – are not safe.
