Inspector Andy Williams said: ‘While the majority of people are complying with the restrictions that have been put in place to ensure our own safety, we are still coming across a small minority who do not seem to understand the regulations.

‘It is vital that, for as long as the restrictions remain in place, everyone takes responsibility for their actions and ensures they are only travelling when absolutely necessary.

‘Our continued aim is to support public health by keeping our key worker colleagues, and the general public, safe.’
