Police in Istanbul's Eyüpsultan district used drones to track riders performing wheelies, stunts, and wrong-way riding on a highway, catching 58 people, including 14 minors. Authorities issued 256 traffic citations and suspended 61 licenses and 61 vehicles for 120 days each.
Beyond just the market angle, this reads as an interesting case study in enforcement infrastructure. Drones tracking riders and relaying to ground units is a method congested Southeast Asian cities could adopt too. Fourteen of the 58 caught being minors is a number worth thinking hard about.

256 citations, 61 licenses, 61 bikes — the breakdown is oddly precise.
120-day license suspension is harsh, but wheelies on a highway aren't defensible either.
Drone enforcement like this will probably hit Japanese highways too eventually.
Someone riding the wrong way on the highway is genuinely scary.
58 people is more than I expected — sounds like this was routine.
14 of them being minors isn't something to laugh about.
