Bandidos OMCG ride in Tasmania – update

Tasmania Police has been and will continue to be closely monitoring the Bandidos OMCG members during their stay in Tasmania. Criminal, anti-social or intimidating behaviour will not be tolerated in our state and we expect OMCG members to drive safely on our roads and respect all traffic laws.

 

Since the arrival of the Bandidos OMCG members in the state, inclusive of the Poker Run conducted by the Bandidios OMCG on 19 November 2017, Tasmania Police detected a number of traffic related offences.

 

Tasmania Police will continue to provide a state-wide highly visible policing presence, closely monitoring the OMCG members for the duration of their visit. This will include vehicle checks, targeted drug and alcohol testing, monitoring for anti-social and criminal behaviour and traffic operations.
