The Civil Guard investigates four motorists between 28 and 34 years old for carrying out dangerous maneuvers on the road known as “Ascent to the Parrots”, in Arafo (Tenerife), where they carried out reckless behavior practices that were broadcast in a video on networks social.
The four drivers have been identified by agents of the Investigation and Analysis Group of the Civil Guard Traffic Group (GIAT) and have been brought to justice for the alleged crime of driving a motor vehicle with manifest recklessness, specifically danger to the life or physical integrity of people.
As reported this Saturday by the Civil Guard, the GIAT agents detected the dissemination of a video on social networks in which several people were observed on their motorcycles circulating on the TF-523 road, known as the “climb to Los Loros” .
The defendants carried out “horse riding” in a coordinated manner, putting their own physical integrity at risk, as well as that of the rest of the road users.
The agents began efforts to identify the drivers and locate the motorcycles, and finally identified the four drivers involved in the events.
These are four people between 28 and 34 years old, residents of Santa Cruz de Tenerife, who are accused of a crime of driving a motor vehicle with manifest recklessness and endangering the life or physical integrity of the people.
Of the investigated facts, the proceedings have been delivered to the Investigating Court acting as Guard of the judicial district of San Cristóbal de La Laguna.
The four drivers, in accordance with the provisions of the Criminal Code for the alleged crime of reckless driving, can face a prison sentence of six months to two years and deprivation of the right to drive motor vehicles and mopeds between one and six years.
The Traffic Group of the Civil Guard has the Research and Analysis Group, a group made up of 178 specialized civil guards that have their headquarters in Madrid, but are present in each of the Traffic sectors of each province.
Its mission is to investigate possible crimes related to road safety, from speeding, reckless driving, false documentation or fraud in driving tests, among others.
This group is permanently attentive to the prevention, prosecution and reporting of these behaviors given the obvious and serious risk they pose to road safety.
Social networks, the so-called deep internet and citizen collaboration are essential to start a new investigation.
