Two people on quad bikes have been seen 'riding inconsiderately at speed' in a very busy local park, according to police.

Blackpool Police posted images of individuals who they said rode off-road motor or quad bikes inconsiderately, at speed, across a very busy local park on Highfield Road, Blackpool.

Riding any motorbike, quad bike or mini-moto off-road on public land, parks, pavements, waste ground or footpath in Blackpool is illegal.

Police say there is also a risk of life changing injuries or worse from crashes or falls linked to the anti-social use of these vehicles.

There is nowhere in Blackpool where off-road vehicles can be legally ridden, without the permission of a private landowner.

Police are asking if anyone knows the people in the images to get in contact.
