Change in Law Makes Traffic Checks Essential for Businesses
New laws introduced on 1 July 2009 have enabled the police to impound vehicles driven
by unlicensed drivers—regardless of who owns the vehicle.
Motorists caught without a licence or misusing an extraordinary licence will lose
the vehicle for 28 days - even if someone else owns it.
A second offence could lead to the vehicle being impounded for up to 3 months
and a third could mean the vehicle is confiscated to be crushed or sold.
Will Your Company Vehicle Be Next?
Over 120 vehicles^ were seized by
police in the first 2 days that the new laws took effect.
