On Wednesday 5 July 2023 on the A229 Chatham Road the car was stopped and officers found the driver was not insured either. All four occupants were issued with a Traffic Offence Report, those without a seatbelt were fined £100 each and the driver received an additional fine of £300 and six points on his driving licence.

Officers from the Proactive Targeting Team seized the vehicle and made arrangements with the driver for it to be collected by someone who was insured. The man arrived with a friend later in the day to collect the car but following checks, the friend wasn’t insured to drive the vehicle he had arrived in and so was also fined and given points.
