Uninsured / unlicensed drivers

I wanted to provide you with an update regarding Road Safety Issues, which people around your area have highlighted as an issue of concern on the priority survey.

This vehicle has been seized this evening by officers from Bodmin Neighbourhood Team whilst they were on hotspot foot patrol in Bodmin Town centre. The vehicle was seen under suspicious circumstances and it was seized (with the assistance of a colleague from Roads Policing Unit) as the male suspected of having been the driver did not have insurance or a driving licence.

A short while earlier, another vehicle attempted to evade an unmarked police vehicle at Aldi car park. The driver made off from police on foot but was located and arrested having failed a roadside drugs test - he will also now be prosecuted for a variety of offences. #HotspotPolicing
