<p>Reports of crimes involving motorcycles, mopeds and scooters, particularly in parts
of London, are clearly a concern. That is why we are working with the police, industry
and other partners to develop and deliver a comprehensive action plan focusing on
what works and what more needs to be done.</p><p>In London, the police are using new
tactics including off-road bikes and DNA marker sprays to catch those committing these
offences and Metropolitan Police figures show that these crimes have been decreasing
since their peak in July last year. We are determined to support the police in their
fight against crime and that is why the Home Office is consulting to change the law
to give officers greater confidence to pursue suspects on the roads.</p>
