Police initiated a dispersal order to manage an extensive car meet at Princess Parade Car Park in Skegness, in response to a series of public complaints. The order was put into effect on Sunday, April 20, and remained active into the early hours of the following Monday. The order authorised officers to dissolve assemblies and prohibit individuals from the area, inclusive of Princes Parade, Grand Parade, South Parade, North Parade and nearby roads. Lincolnshire Police reported the involvement of over 50 vehicles in hazardous behaviour such as excessive speeding, engine revving and performing donuts. Such activities caused distress to the general public and resulted in trapped families who had parked in the vicinity. The prompt action by the police aimed to minimise disruption and maintain public safety, with the potential for arrest and prosecution for those who did not comply with the order. Officers at the location, aided by a police drone, continued to surveil the situation meticulously.
