Ten arrests and 35 Fixed Penalty Notices capped a hard-hitting joint operation by Wiltshire Police, the DVSA and Immigration Enforcement to drive unsafe vehicles and fraud off UK roads.
RPU officers teamed up with partner agencies for a one-day blitz across Wiltshire’s road network, zeroing in on dangerous vehicles and bogus documents — hallmarks of organised immigration crime.
Immigration officers made ten arrests for immigration offences. RPU teams issued 35 FPNs, including 16 for overloading and eight for defective tyres — hazards that endanger every road user.
DVSA examiners handed out £1,200 in penalties for overweight vehicles, tyre defects, insecure bodywork and lighting faults.
They also uncovered two cases of HGV drivers exceeding their legal tachograph hours — a clear breach of safety rules that protect the public and keep Britain’s roads safe.
