Fake driving licence and no vehicle tax leads to delivery van seizures in Haslemere

A courier driver produced a fake driving licence after being stopped by Surrey Police Casualty Reduction officers and the vehicle was seized.

A colleague then arrived to pick up parcels that had been removed from the first van – but the vehicle was not taxed. The van was subsequently seized.

A Surrey RoadSafe spokesperson said: “One of our Surrey Police Casualty Reduction officers was in Haslemere when they stopped a courier driver for routine checks.

“The driver produced a fake driving licence and the vehicle was seized.

“A colleague arrived to collect the parcels that had been removed from the first van, however his vehicle was not taxed and so that was seized as well.”
