Met Police Officer Booted for Driving Without Licence or Insurance – Twice!
A Metropolitan Police officer has been sacked after repeatedly driving to work without a valid licence or motor insurance.
PC Dcosta’s Shocking Repeat Offence
PC Dcosta was first caught in April 2025 driving without a proper licence or insurance. He received a stern warning and was told the serious consequences if he broke the rules again.
But just a month later, in May 2025, the officer was spotted committing the same offence. He was reported and slapped with a Single Justice Procedure Notice for driving unlawfully without third-party insurance.
Fired Without Notice
On 13 February, PC Dcosta was dismissed without notice. He will also be added to the Public Barred List, maintained by the College of Policing, effectively ending his policing career.
