Disturbing scenes in Beddau last night. I hope everyone involved is safe and well, and thank South Wales Police for responding so quickly. Anti-social driving puts lives at risk and causes real concern for residents. We need swift action to identify those responsible for last night’s incident, alongside sustained work to tackle the wider problem locally. We will continue to push for measures to make our roads safer and keep our community safe.
