After a short pursuit, the driver de-camped and ran off. ๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ’จ

๐ŸšจThe driver of this MG has been stopped by officers on three separate occasions in three different vehicles.

Since 1978 the driver has only ever held a provisional licence and has never passed a driving test. โ›”

Yesterday he was targeted and stopped in Worplesdon. He was reported and vehicle seized.๐Ÿ”’

๐Ÿ“ฑ๐Ÿš”๐ŸŒฟ Already awaiting trial. Then stopped again.

A officer spotted this van driver on ๐Ÿ“Woking Road, Guildford using a mobile phone behind the wheel while not wearing a seatbelt.

When officers stopped the vehicle, further checks revealed another concern.

๐Ÿงช A roadside drugs test returned a positive result for co***ne.

What makes this stop particularly concerning is that the driver is already awaiting trial after being arrested by the on the M25 earlier this year for:

๐Ÿ“ฑ Using a mobile phone whilst driving
๐ŸŒฟ Drug driving

The outcome?

๐Ÿš” Driver arrested for all offences

Awaiting trial is an opportunity to reflect on previous decisions.

Instead, this driver has found themselves facing even more questions to answer.

โš  Phone distractions, not wearing a seatbelt, and drug driving all increase the risk to everyone on our roads.

๐Ÿš”๐Ÿ“š Today's insurance lesson comes with a vehicle seizure...

This driver was stopped in ๐Ÿ“Chipstead, by officers, while driving a vehicle that wasn't insured.

When questioned, the driver believed they were covered by the "drive other vehicles third party" clause found on some comprehensive insurance policies.

There was just one problem...

๐Ÿš— The uninsured vehicle they were driving was also their own vehicle.

The "drive other vehicles" extension is designed for driving someone else's vehicle in certain circumstances. It doesn't provide insurance for a vehicle you own but haven't insured in its own right.

The outcome?

๐Ÿ“‹ Traffic Offence Report issued for driving without insurance
๐Ÿš— Vehicle seized

Before getting behind the wheel, make sure the vehicle you're driving is actually covered by a valid insurance policy.

๐Ÿš”โ„๏ธ Some drivers never seem to get the message...

Last week, this Renault van caught the attention of Officers due to concerns around its documentation.

Fast forward to Operation Riptide and officers spotted it again in the Woking area.

๐Ÿ“‹ What followed was a checklist of offences:

๐Ÿšซ Expired driving licence
๐Ÿšซ No insurance
๐Ÿšซ Expired MOT
๐Ÿšซ No vehicle tax

And then things got even worse...

Despite being arrested for drink driving in July, the driver was still willing to take risks behind the wheel.

A roadside drugs test returned a positive result for co***ne. โ„๏ธ

Result?

๐Ÿš” Driver arrested
๐Ÿš— Vehicle seized

The paperwork wasn't in order. The vehicle wasn't legal. And the driver wasn't fit to be on the road.

๐Ÿš” Dรฉjร  vu all over again...

Officers stopped this vehicle on ๐Ÿ“Oatlands Drive, Weybridge for a routine document check.

The driver was using a Brazilian driving licence and had been living in the UK for well over a year.

Sound familiar?

It certainly did to the officer who carried out the stop.

๐Ÿ‘€ The same officer stopped the same driver last year for driving on the same Brazilian licence and without insurance. That incident resulted in the driver being sent to court.

Fast forward to today, and the situation hadn't changed.

โŒ Driving otherwise than in accordance with a licence
โŒ Driving without insurance

The outcome?

๐Ÿš— Vehicle seized
๐Ÿ“‹ Driver summonsed to court

And this time, the driver now faces the prospect of a driving disqualification through totting up points.

One stop might be a lesson.

Two stops for the same offences? That's an expensive reminder. ๐Ÿš”

๐Ÿ๏ธ Built for the circuit, not the commute...

One of the motorcyclist stopped this vehicle in ๐Ÿ“Camberley after it was spotted being ridden on the road despite a number of obvious defects.

Checks revealed:
โŒ No registration plate
๐Ÿ’ก No brake lights
๐Ÿ”ง Additional vehicle defects
โŒ No insurance
โŒ No driving licence
โŒ No MOT

The outcome?

๐Ÿš— Vehicle seized

๐Ÿš” What started as a seatbelt stop quickly escalated...

officers stopped this vehicle in ๐Ÿ“West Molesey after noticing that neither the driver nor passenger were wearing a seatbelt.

For the passenger, it meant a ticket. ๐ŸŽซ

For the driver, things were about to get a lot worse.

Checks revealed:
โŒ No insurance
โŒ Illegal number plates

And then officers uncovered something even more significant...

๐Ÿ‘ฎ The driver was wanted in connection with an attempted burglary.

The outcome?

๐Ÿš” Driver arrested
๐Ÿš— Vehicle seized

A reminder that what might seem like a minor traffic offence can often lead officers to uncover much more.
