The Irish Coast Guard has issued a warning against using inflatables in open waters, specifically at beaches, urging beachgoers to carry devices for emergency communication. Concurrently, Northumbria Police's Marine Unit has raised concerns about a rise in anti-social behavior among jet skiers, particularly incidents of reckless speeding along the Northumberland coast. Following a distress call about a crash, police conducted a multi-agency rescue operation that located two individuals in the River Tyne, resulting in the seizure of their jet skis. Officers have emphasized the importance of responsible watercraft usage, as violators face potential criminal charges. Sergeant Simon Falconer highlighted the need for safety awareness during the busy summer months and informed that reckless riders could be penalized under new national laws. Both agencies aim to ensure the safety of all water users and discourage dangerous behavior on waterways.
