BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) — It’s just like clockwork. As the temperatures rise, ATVs and dirt bikes shift into gear in Buffalo.
New video shows a horde of ATVs and dirt bikes on Delaware Avenue Sunday afternoon. Some are seen driving on the incoming traffic lane, and one even pops a wheelie.
Fillmore District Councilman Mitch Nowakowski represents this area.
“This only leads to more chaos and disruption, and ultimately leads to potential fatalities for both those that are operating and those that are in the vehicles,” Nowakowski said. “And it’s wrong.”
These all-terrain vehicles have proven to be a persistent problem for drivers over the years in Buffalo. Nowakowski says once the snow melts, he starts hearing complaints about these vehicles from residents.
“It’s making our city’s streets unsafer and the velocity and the volume in which they congregate and the manner in which they drive not only jeopardizes their life, it jeopardizes the life of everyone around them,” Nowakowski said.
The councilman wrote a letter on Monday to Family Court Judge Brenda Freedman, requesting a meeting to discuss strengthening a collective response to reckless driving involving young people.
“Councilwoman Everhart and I want to sit down with the judge, explain what’s happening in our districts, where we see car thefts, we see the Kia boys, which I’ve even been a victim of,” Nowakowski said. “We see the violence on the 33 of drag racing where somebody has lost their life. And we want to know what programs are in place. But then, where’s the accountability once somebody is in your courtroom for a second, third or fourth time?”
Nowakowski said police using better equipment and technology has helped curtail all-terrain vehicles on city streets.
“If it comes from them being able to see it through a drone or people calling in. We’ve seen a curb in that,” Nowakowski said.
Those who see illegal activity or a public nuisance can contact Buffalo Police or the city’s 311 Call & Resolution Center.

CLAYMONT, Del. (WPVI) — Police say over 14,000 bags of fentanyl were found in the woods in New Castle County on Sunday.
The drugs were found off Miles Road in the Radnor Green neighborhood of Claymont, Delaware.
Authorities say a young adult and a juvenile were walking through the woods around 5:30 p.m. when they came upon two grocery bags filled with the illegal narcotics.
After returning home, they reported what they found to a family member, who then called the police.
Police say the grocery bags contained two large packages, often referred to as “bricks.”
Tests confirmed the substance to be 14,0888 individual bags of fentanyl.
Anyone with information is asked to call the New Castle County Division of Police at 302-573-2800.
