#VanguardRST officers stopped the driver of this vehicle for tinted windows yesterday.
The windscreen was found to be legal..just, but front side windows were only 13%, with the legal minimum being 70%.
Side tints removed and driver issued with an FPN. 👮🏼
Front Windscreen and Front Side Windows
• Vehicles first used on or after 1 April 1985: The front windscreen must allow at least 75% of light through (minimum 75% Visible Light Transmission, or VLT). The front side windows (next to the driver and front passenger) must allow at least 70% of light through.
• Vehicles first used before 1 April 1985: Both the front windscreen and front side windows must allow at least 70% of light through.
• Note: Most vehicle glass already has a slight factory tint. Adding an aftermarket film often pushes the combined VLT below the legal limit.

🚨The driver of this van was stopped by #VanguardRST officers as they were seen using a mobile phone while driving on M25.
The driver told officers his sat nav had stopped working and he was attempting to get directions back up?📵
With 9 points already on his licence, (6 from a previous mobile phone offence) the driver now faces disqualification, and he says he will lose his job.
Reported to court.🧑🏼⚖️
Distracted driving kills.

🚨This vehicle was stopped by #SPCasualtyReduction in Byfleet this morning due to numerous speeding offences linked to it. The owner had failed to respond to notices.
Roadside checks revealed that the main driver was a provisional licence holder only (with no supervision) which may explain why? 🚫
The driver was reported and vehicle seized.🔒
Another high-risk offender removed from the roads.✅

🚨On Friday, this Fiat Punto was flagged to #VanguardRST officers for no insurance.
The driver produced an insurance document; however, he had failed to disclose the eight points he had accrued previously, for…you guessed it… no insurance.
This non-disclosure invalidated the driver’s policy.🛑
The vehicle was seized and the driver reported to court where he now faces losing his licence.

🚨COURT RESULT
The driver of this BMW was stopped by a #VanguardRST officer for non-conforming plates.🚫

Rather than simply paying the £100, the driver decided to take the matter to court where he pleaded…GUILTY!?! 🧑🏼⚖️
The driver was ordered to pay £1,099 in fines and charges.
Don’t make the same mistake. Check your plates are legal.

🚨No Licence, No Insurance? No Car...
This vehicle was stopped by #SPCasualtyReduction in Shalford this morning for a routine documents check. It quickly became apparent that the driver would not be driving any further. 🚫
The driver only held a licence from Zimbabwe, despite living in the UK for 20 years with no other form of licence...🛑
Further to this, despite the driver claiming the vehicle had only been uninsured for a month, roadside checks revealed the vehicle had been uninsured for 16 months.
Vehicle seized 🔒and an expensive court date pending for the driver.🧑🏼⚖️

🚨NO LICENCE. NO INSURANCE. DRUG DRIVING. AGAIN.
#VanguardRST officers stopped the driver of this Audi in Godalming yesterday.
It wasn't the first time.
The same driver was stopped by Waverley Beat (Surrey Police) in August with an expired provisional licence, no insurance and testing positive for cannabis.
Yesterday, the same offences were repeated — along with the theft of a motor vehicle, after the driver had allegedly taken it without the owner's permission.
This reckless behaviour puts everyone else on the road at risk.
Our road safety teams are focused on tackling these offences and bringing those who put others at risk to justice.
