‘The male has been arrested and will be spoken to about the matter.
‘This incident could have ended tragically and we want to reaffirm that the Mountain Road is one way between Ramsey and the Creg ny Baa.’

A police spokesman said: ‘You couldn’t make it up really .’
The culprit has been given an endorsable fixed penalty for riding without due care and attention
