“If you’re putting other road users at risk with your stupidity then we’ll book you a day out at Horsham Magistrates court where you can explain your actions to them - potentially ending up with points / fine or a custodial.
“Oh and if you think we won’t catch you, we will, we always do.”
In August last year police issued a warning to ‘street racers’ in Broadbridge Heath.
