Armed police! Come to the door. You'll come to no harm.
GUNSHOT Shots fired.
SIREN BLARES Crime never sleeps...
Oi!

Calm down.
Because cometh the hour...
Get down on the floor.
...cometh the interceptors.
Oi! You can get off!
Coming UP---
The gun is a black handgun.
He was on his phone texting at one point.
We're setting a stinger site up.
King of the stingers...
Vehicle's stung, vehicle's stung.
...and...
EY"UP, mate, where you going?
Oi, police with a dog, police with a dog.
...Rambo reins supreme.
Stay there now. Police with a dog, police with a dog.
Notts Interceptors protect and serve more than one million people.
Keeping the streets safe and locking up the bad guys is a team game.
One driver?
Be unusual if it were two drivers, Lisa.
Lols.
Lols and bants get them through the day, but
when reports come in of a dangerous threat, the team is all business.
POLICE RADIO:
Ooh.
Robbery in Bulwell with a handgun.
A teenager has been robbed in broad daylight at a tram stop
by two suspects alleged to have a gun.
Jim Campin guns the unmarked Volvo en route to the scene while
Dan Machin reviews the latest intel on the suspected street robbery.
Two males have walked up to some others and robbed their chain
from round their neck and some EarPods, headphones.
They're described as two black males, one with braided hair,
one in a blue coat, one in a black coat,
and they've had a black handgun tucked in their waistband.
The suspects are allegedly armed and dangerous
but the interceptors have the numbers...
So we're just getting armed at the minute.
...and the tools.
Kitting up with Heckler & Koch carbines...
...are firearms cops Bruce Arnold and Lisa Desantis.
Also en route...
Delta 23 from Zulu 2.
...fellow firearms cop Paul Charlesworth has his foot down,
while Sergeant Lenny Bennett calls the shots alongside him.
You bolt onto the back of the 22 car, please,
they'll be your dog prot, obviously give us a fight and flight option.
Go ahead, 28.
It's a full team turnout.
In total, 15 officers are travelling to hunt down the allegedly
armed tram-stop robbers.
They said they were the other side of the bridge.
First to the area are Dan and Jim.
Oh, I know where it is, mate.
Dan's been working with Jim for the last four years.
He never forgets a face or a route,
and knows these streets like a six foot satnav.
Oh, it's not here.
Keep going, it's Powell Road, isn't it? Deptford, isn't it? Ah, yeah.
Incognito in the unmarked Volvo, the lads are perfectly placed to
scope the neighbourhood.
Going to nip down...
...you know that one that cuts through with the bridge?
Yeah, yeah.
And, at that bridge, things get interesting.
Hello. Hello.
Are they...are they?
Yeah, I'd say so. Could be them, yeah?
Two lads on the steps match the description.
It's the footbridge that goes over the train line
and it's the Deptford Crescent end, they are sat on the steps.
Only in T-shirts but they have duffle coats hung on the railings.
Want to jump out?
The suspects could have a gun, so the boys want to keep
obs on them from a distance, until armed backup arrives.
Just out on foot, stand by.
To OSC, we'll run on taser only.
Just make sure we've got one the other side of the train track.
Dan tries to get a line of sight...
From 52, can't see if they're still sat on the steps,
the view is covered by a Nottingham City Homes van.
...while Jim spins the unmarked around.
35-90, I've got a clean unobstructed view down to where
they were at the bottom of the steps now - they're not there.
The suspects have vanished.
Believe they'll have gone back up over the train bridge now.
Jim reckons they've done a runner over the bridge to the other side
of the railway line...
...where armed cops are closing in fast.
Paul and Lenny are hot on the tram-stop robbers' tracks.
I think we're there now. Here.
At the other side of the bridge.
They've reached the other side of the footbridge...
Right east end, I've got two... Ah.
...and spot two lads ducking into a garage.
Two runners.
Hands out flat, don't move.
Ooh.
Following a tram-stop robbery in Bulwell, a team of interceptors
are on the hunt for two suspects alleged to have a gun.
So we're just getting armed at the minute.
The gun is described as being a black handgun.
Jim and Dan found a pair that fit the description...
To OSC, we'll run on taser only.
They are sat on the steps.
I think we're there now. Here.
At the other side of the bridge.
On the other side of the tracks
Lenny and Paul have spotted the reportedly armed and dangerous duo.
Right, east end I've got two... Ah!
The suspects have legged it...
...ditched something in a garage, and walked out to face the music.
Lenny and Paul have challenged the potentially armed robbers
to get on the ground.
It's a tense moment.
One of the lads, who could have a gun, lunges towards them.
The jumpy suspect has got something in his hands -
unsure if it's a weapon, Lenny kicks the item away.
The suspected armed robber refuses to comply.
Now the cops think he's reaching for something in his waistband.
As he moves to get to his feet,
Lenny's forced to take him down,
and Paul slaps the cuffs on him.
By the time the cavalry rolls in...
That's the one we saw, mate.
...both runners are in cuffs...
Paul, they're both being charged with robbery.
...and nicked on suspicion of robbery.
Got cannabis on him as well. Do you want a further 35 for that?
You're actually further under arrest for possession of cannabis,
all right? Still under caution for that.
Yeah, yeah. As they've heard the sirens,
they've come over the bridge where you've seen them. Yeah.
And they've run down and round here, and they've been trying to run
into that corner as we've come round the corner. Nice.
He got up and fought with us, though.
Basically said give me your stuff I've got a burner,
put his hand on his waistband, not seen anything.
Not produced anything, just threatened.
Yeah, and these are the two the other side, so. It'll be them, mate,
he's got the EarPods in his pocket.
It looks like the robber's been caught red-handed.
Some EarPods that got stolen, that's what one of the lads
has had in his pocket, and he's got a bud of cannabis as well.
But there's no sign of a gun on either suspect,
both of whom it turns out are just 17 years old.
Play big-boy games and threatening with guns, you will get
put on the floor by armed police, right?
Let this be a lesson to you today, take something from it.
The lads are led away from the big-boy games,
leaving the team to check CCTV.
He's on his phone texting at gunpoint.
Unbelievably the teenage suspect was playing with his mobile phone.
Doesn't care.
Watch him, he gets up again, look.
I thought he was going for his waist there.
I'm just shocked at that, 17 year old,
a cop with armed police pointing guns at them,
and they're just not doing as they're told, don't seem fussed.
Interceptors have combed the area
and there's no sign of a discarded gun.
Mach.
You got a big property bag?
No.
But one of the teenagers did have something just as deadly.
It's been a successful day at the office for Lenny and his team.
Real good bit of work by Dan and Jim,
who've had the foresight to think where they may have gone,
picked them up and passed the information to the team,
so happy days and justice for a victim who's been, you know,
going about his business this morning and robbed.
The two offenders, they're young, they're young kids
and, you know, you play with feathers, you'll get tickled.
It's big-boy stuff - you start threatening innocent people
with guns, you're going to come and meet us.
One of the teenagers was convicted of the tram-stop robbery,
as well as possession of a knife and cannabis.
He was given an 11 month referral order,
had to pay £200 compensation, and the knife was destroyed.
No legal action was taken against the second suspect.
Tracking runaway bad guys isn't easy
so some interceptors pack four-legged firepower.
Good lad, up.
Reporting for duty tonight are dog handler Coops
and his canine crime fighter, Rambo.
Just starting out on our 12 hour nightshift tonight,
for a bit of old-fashioned policing, really,
get up into the right areas and see what comes of it.
Coops joined the force straight from school and became a Grade A cop.
His proudest moment was joining the dog unit and teaming up...
...with Rambo - a three-year-old Belgian Malinois,
whose finest skill is sniffing out suspects.
And there's a whiff of action in the air,
a hot hatch is forecast to blow in from the north.
One of our units has seen or spooked a couple of cars in convoy,
they were racing one another, and they've just done a vanishing act.
So we've got basic details, looking for a Fiesta,
we're in the area, so fingers crossed.
There it is.
Just like that...
...Coops spots a Fiesta that fits the bill.
From Delta 12, it's Belgrave Road.
If this is the boy racer, then he's not doing much racing now,
but Coops still wants a word.
You get the reg down?
A flash of the blues...
We're looking for a white A1.
...so far so good.
But the passenger seems keen to stretch his legs.
Ey-up, mate, where you going? Oi, police with a dog!
Police with a dog, police with a dog! Stay there now!
Police with a dog! Stay where you are!
One's on the run, but the car's full. Decision time, Coops.
Get out of the car, get out of the car, do it now!
Get out of the car! Get out of the car, do it now!
Get on the floor now, get on the floor, do it now! Do it now!
Get on the floor! Hands behind your back!
With backup on scene and four secure, that just leaves the runner.
It's man versus Rambo.
Come on, this way.
Place your bets, folks, my money's on the dog.
Where is he? Find him.
Where is he Find him? Where is he?
Go on, find him, where is he? Where is he? Find him.
If hide and seek was an Olympic sport...
Where is he? Find him.
...Rambo would have more medals than Usain Bolt,
he follows his nose to an alley behind back gardens.
He's caught a scent but there's no sign of the runaway.
Delta 12, he's gone onto Catherine Close,
and possibly out onto the grassed area.
But Rambo's not giving up yet and clearly wants to earn another medal.
He seems struck by this garden.
Perhaps it's the new garden feature.
Stay there now!
Police with a dog, police with a dog, police with a dog!
Get on the floor now! Do it now! Get on the floor!
Face down, on the floor, do it now! Do it now!
Rambo one, runner nil.
Listen to me, my friend, you're going to come to no harm.
Just don't make any sudden movements, pal.
Delta 12, got a male detained.
Yeah, all right, then, mate.
Plenty of time, you're detained.
I don't know what's happened with that vehicle, all right?
So you just... Hello.
Police officer. just stay inside for me, please, sir.
Stay inside, thank you.
With Rambo breathing down his neck,
this lad's not likely to chance legging it again.
You don't have to look at me,
but listen very carefully, my friend, OK?
Other officers are going to come.
Hello. Come down the back alleyway.
Other offices are going to detain you.
I'll get the dog away, yeah?
Hands behind your back, middle of your back. Good lad.
Middle of your back.
Jim Campin's on hand to cuff the shell-shocked suspect.
Going to get the dog away, gents, all right? All right.
Don't move to your side because it'll hurt you, mate.
Good lad. Good lad. Clever lad. Clever boy. Good lad.
Not half as tight as Rambo's grip would have been.
OK? Come on, then. Come to your knees, come to your knees.
Come to your knees. That way if you want.
Back at the Fiesta, Coops is checking in with the rest of the crew.
That was lucky he didn't get bitten.
Yeah, didn't bite him.
All I'll say, though,
I can't say whether it's going to be on TV or not but the driver's facial
reactions when the dog was here, it might make him famous.
Like a magic wardrobe, this.
A little Fiesta, look, three door,
three other likely suspects on the back seat,
and driver over there, and the full house when he comes back.
And for the magic wardrobe's next trick, ta-da, Class B!
Spencer's discovered a bit of cannabis
squirrelled away in the glove box.
The lad that's been tracked by the dog officer and caught,
he's admitted to it being his cannabis just for personal use.
He's just going to be dealt with at a low level for as a cannabis
warning for that matter,
and obviously they've been advised about legging it from us.
For the sake of a, I don't know,
a tenner's worth of cannabis, he's nearly had his arm bitten,
and for a lad who's, he's not known as a bad lad, I think he's been
compliant with the other officers, yeah, it was a very silly move.
As the runner's never been in trouble before, he's given
a cannabis warning which means he won't get a criminal record this
time, but he could face a caution if he's caught with cannabis again.
NG6 gang-
His mates are in the clear and free to go.
NG6? Yeah, man. Nah! Behave yourselves, all right?
As a cop there, as a dog handler,
you've got a split decision to decide, have we got enough here?
Is this a stolen car? Are there weapons inside? Drugs?
And I just didn't feel it was right at that moment in time to basically
send the dog and get him bitten.
Turns out for me that was the right decision.
These aren't career criminals in this car, they're nice lads,
they might be bordering either way, which way to fall of the line.
That passenger hopefully won't do that again.
Runaway drivers are often prepared to break every rule of the road.
It is failing to stop, speed is 70.
Mate, he's gone the wrong side.
It's a dead end.
Going to get stuck surely.
But up against the interceptors' elite tactics...
Box on, box on.
From Zulu 2, we're just trying to set up a stinger sight.
...teamwork...
Offside junction, through the junction.
I'll try and give you a heads up.
...and timing.
Some suspects can be left feeling a little deflated.
Calm down, calm down.
I've stung your bike. Yeah?
Half an hour ago across the border in Lincolnshire, cops try to stop
a car with markers for failing to stop for the police.
From 28, we're going to try and get up to Loftwood Hill.
The driver took off,
and now he's crossed onto the interceptors' patch,
where advanced driver Bruce
and teammate Chalky are racing to intercept.
We're just coming up Southwell Road now.
We're just coming up Southwell Road now, it might be a bit tight.
It's a vehicle that's failed to stop for Lincolnshire officers.
Mobile managed to get behind it as it's coming into Notts,
but they're not pursuit or TPAC trained,
so they've not attempted to make any stop of the vehicle.
A pre-emptive stop has been authorised.
In other words, box in the bad guy before he makes another run for it.
From 22, we're coming up towards Rainworth Roundabout shortly.
A second unit has its eyes on the target car.
It's down to Bruce, Chalky and a stinger to take out its tyres.
Chalky's chalked up 26 years in uniform
and the seasoned interceptor is a dab hand with the old spikes.
But timing is everything, they need to be ahead of the suspect motor.
The car's coming this way.
They need a safe spot out of sight.
Could go here? On the bend.
Or in the dark round here, let's go up here.
We're just passing the road junction,
or the crossroads with eatery to our near side. No deviation A614.
Mind you, it's gonna...
We're setting a stinger site up just off Lockwell Hill Roundabout A614.
The stinger is a strip of metal spikes
which are thrown across the road to puncture a car's tyres.
Which will he take?
A car with markers for failing to stop for police in Lincolnshire...
...is now on the interceptors' patch.
Leaving other units to tail the suspect motor,
Bruce and Chalky have raced a mile ahead of it.
Could get it here on the bend,
or in the dark round here, let's go up here?
They plotted up just off a roundabout, armed with a stinger.
Yeah, we're set up just give us a shout when he comes off it.
The target's incoming.
But will the driver take the exit with a sting?
Here he comes. Stay sharp, Chalky.
Vehicle stung, vehicle stung.
Right, let's go.
That's the way to do it.
Stop, stop, stop, no contact.
Both front tyres are busted and so is the driver.
Just turn and face this car for me.
Do you want to take it down to the Chinese?
Yeah, limp it down, yeah, just keep it to 20.
With traffic building, the interceptors clear the road,
and just about manage to park up nearby to search the car.
It was a sharp takedown and Chalky's chuffed with his handiwork.
A search of the car doesn't turn up anything illegal, and checks
on the driver are clear too, so the fail to stop is a bit of a mystery.
It was interceptor Richard,
who picked up the car when it came into the county.
I think the driver is was a bit confused of what was happening
and has no stopped when the police have illuminated the
blue lights and sirens, resulting in this incident in Nottinghamshire.
If those blue lights and sirens start illuminating
and the vehicles are there behind you,
you need to consider stopping for them.
The driver said he didn't realise
that officers in Lincolnshire wanted him to stop.
No further action was taken by Lincolnshire Police.
Whenever they roll out, interceptors know to expect the unexpected.
Very often it's just a small thing, you'll have a car with
a light out, or might look like it's going a little bit quickly,
you'll pull it over with no more intention really than
just seeing what the driver's about, having a word with them
about the condition of their car, and then things willjust develop.
The driver will start behaving strangely,
you'll find things in the car.
You really never know where it's going to go.
Ready to roll. Boom.
It's a balmy summer evening in the city,
and Dan and Jim are making important enquiries.
Have you got tea today?
What?
Lame.
Sandwiches. No.
No, I'm not doing it, I refuse.
Dan, KP60.
It's the Skoda.
Stand down the salad and step on it.
That Skoda is southbound and we're Gregory Boulevard towards.
Anyone free?
On the menu instead is a blue Skoda,
seen screaming around Sneinton earlier today.
Now the motor has been spotted nearby.
Just bear us in mind, we're probably going to pick this up, push that up.
Sure enough...
It's there, look.
...the suspect Skoda sails by in the opposite direction.
A quick U-ey...
It's not gone for it and our lights are illuminated.
Let's just get it straight in, mate.
...and the boys light it up.
Oh, it's a stop. Stop outside Djanogly.
All right, boys, how you doing? You OK?
Good, what's your name, please?
Turn your car off, mate. We've had some information
passed to us that you've been thrashing it up and down
past some PCO in Sneinton this afternoon.
That's the reason I've come to talk to you, mate.
There are three lads in the car
and something iffy in the back seat footwell.
Whose is all that?
All that on the floor there.
All the cannabis on the floor.
And all between your legs as well.
Oh, yeah, there's a big lump there by your feet as well.
Right, boys.
So we can see all the cannabis, yeah?
So we'll get you out, we'll get another unit here, we'll see
how much there is. Yeah. And then we'll go from there, all right?
Just go with this officer here, look.
With the three lads out of the way, Jim can take
a look inside the Skoda.
Zoe can you just cuff them up,
cos there's quite a bit of drugs in the back.
After 21 years on the front line, Jim's favourite gadget is
still a trusty torch, but there's not much call for it today.
This lot is hard to miss.
So one, two, three,
four, five good bags of nice dried cannabis, ready to go.
That one's got a hole in it so we'll be careful with that.
And three boys, and it's going to be very difficult for us
to say who was in possession of it, but because all three boys were
in the car, I think there's a quantity of cash,
some phones that we'd describe as burner phones as well that
people dealing drugs will often use and they can discard quite readily.
So we'll take them to the Bridewell and they'll all be interviewed
and see if they can explain what they're going to do with this.
The forecast isn't looking good...
...on the weather front or the drugs front.
I don't think it's fair to say that's personal use.
It's raining cats and drugs.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Jeez, thanks.
It's not my cup of tea, mate.
I'm just going to get that in an evidence bag, mate.
Will the lads weather the storm ofjim's next question?
So whose is that? Anyone want to take ownership of it?
No?
Anyone?
The tight lipped trio...
You're not going to melt in the rain, don't worry.
...are off to a nice dry nick.
You're under arrest for possession
of cannabis with intent to supply, OK?
It's not going to be any other way, is it?
You've got a load of cannabis in the car.
You're in the car, you know it's there.
Right, we'll see you down there.
An interceptor's work is never rained off...
I've got gel in my eyes.
...and Dan and Jim pore over every inch of the Skoda.
There's another phone here,
so, albeit not a burner.
Right, mate, yeah, let's park it up Lesley Road?
I'll do that, mate.
With the suspect Skoda sorted, the interceptors head down to custody.
Oh, my God.
Absolutely to the bone.
Just come round here a second.
The three lads are drying off at hotel Bridewell.
We're going to let you out of them cuffs.
There you go. There you go. Cash. Four.
Jim and Dan drop the seized drugs and cash at the evidence store.
Cannabis.
The three boys will be put to sleep for the night,
left to rest, fed, watered, and then interviewed in the morning.
For possession of cannabis, the driver admitted the offence
and was fined £146, one passenger awaits his day in court,
while the other received no further action.
Back out on duty for the seven till seven shift is Jim
and his partner for the night, Ben.
Covering all 834 square miles of Nottinghamshire
they've always got their eyes peeled.
Ey'l1P-
That is a runner.
Ey-up. It's a Nissan.
Ey-up. And a Kia.
How long can I do that for and you answer with every make?
Until I stopped?
I was going to do it, I was going to do it,
see which of us give up first.
As darkness falls...
There's a report of a group of teenagers
on the rampage in the market town of Arnold.
Who's the main offender and the description, please?
As they reach the last known location,
the boys spot a group of lads at the end of the street.
They've just been stopped by another unit.
Jim jumps out to investigate.
You a footballer?
So why are we stopping you, then? How old are you? 15?
Whilst Jim chats to a teenage footballer...
What you doing knocking round here, then? Commit yourself to it, mate.
...a lad in grey trackies tries his luck as a sprinter.
Still in the X5, eagle-eyed Ben doesn't miss a trick,
and boots it.
Spotting the runnerjumping a garden fence, Ben rallies the team.
Suspect is in here.
With reports a security guard has been assaulted,
the interceptors can't take any chances.
They've got a block of houses surrounded.
In one of the gardens...
24, can you see a vehicle?
...Ben notices a security light flashing
on the other side of the fence.
Where are you, Benny boy?
Ben's collared the runner...
...who was hiding behind a garage.
All right, stay here a second.
Jim doesn't find any stolen items,
and the suspect isn't armed, but they do make a discovery in his bag.
Some lollypops that have got cannabis leaf on them.
One, two, three, four, four deal bags. Scales.
Oh, mate.
And then them.
What in deal bags? ls that what you're selling, paracetamol?
Also in the suspected robber's bag...
What are these?
Homework?
...he's only just turned 16.
It's very typical of the young boys in this area at the minute,
they get mixed up with the wrong crowds.
Obviously there's a little bit of pressure from the elders
in their groups, and they get forced to do things,
and I think that's what's taken place tonight.
Everything on him is basically pointing the finger
that he's doing some drug dealing in the area, so unfortunately we've got
a 16-year-old boy who's locked up for drug dealing at the minute.
It's a sad state of affairs for me.
Due to the lack of evidence, no charges were brought in relation
to dealing, and no further action was taken in regards to the assault.
Still to come...
Rabbit. There you go, it's the one.
Oblivious to blues and twos...
Yeah, behind a vehicle, not sure if it's failing to stop or not.
Mate, it is, isn't it? He's not stopping.
...or just plain clueless?
Mate, switch off now.
Can you not see us behind you?
Driving without insurance is against the law, but across the UK,
police officers catch over 100,000 uninsured drivers a year.
It is hard to get away with it, but you'll always have your chancers,
they can't necessarily afford it or they're just
the type of the people that don't think they have to pay for it.
We do get the odd people who due to bad admin, they'll have forgotten to
insure their cars, and they'll never do it again they'll learn a lesson.
Driving with no insurance must be well stressful.
Every police car you see, you think, "Whoa!"
You know, do the old "Play it cool," Del Boy, Rodders.
"Don't look now." Yeah.
In Nottingham...
It's not held, mate, on a Peugeot 207 in grey.
...Lee and Dom are on the hunt for a suspected uninsured car
travelling through the city.
It's westbound. As on the map?
So it's going to be up here, this is Queen's Road, isn't it? Yeah.
It's all systems go...
Hopefully it'll be in this lot here.
...lights, sirens and two sets of eagle eyes.
That it? There you go.
That's the one.
Dom signals to pull over...
...but the uninsured driver isn't taking any notice.
He's not going to stop, mate.
Do you think?
Del Boy's either playing it cool...
NH, it's Foxtrot 31.
I'm still not wholly convinced.
...or he's completely oblivious.
Dom ramps up the light show.
Yeah, behind a vehicle at Queen's Drive.
Not sure if it's failing to stop or not.
Mate it is, isn't it? He's not stopping.
The interceptors are in hot pursuit...
It's 25 miles an hour.
...well, maybe lukewarm.
But still the pug driver pootles on...
Single occupant, approaching Red ATS at Crossgate Drive junction.
They're already hard to miss but Don makes them harder still.
Mate, switch off.
Switch your engine off, now.
You not see us behind you?
So why have you not pulled over while we're continually behind you?
Put your handbrake on, you're rolling back.
We're not trying to overtake, we're pulling you over.
Yeah?
We're sat behind you, if we wanted to get by we'd have gone by,
we're actually pulling you over. So you pull over and stop, OK?
The reason we're stopping you is
because the car's showing as no insurance.
So have you got any insurance for the vehicle?
You should have.
OK.
Mr Oblivious claims he pays for his insurance monthly.
Right. Are you able to check that?
Just need something to say that you're paying for your insurance,
because ultimately if you can't prove it, then the car will be
seized and you'll be reported for driving no insurance.
OK.
Yeah.
OK.
No, no, no, absolutely, I'm not saying it is.
The problem with an insurance offence is it's what
we call an absolute offence, so you either have it or you don't.
If you're driving a vehicle on a road without it,
then you commit the offence.
Do you think it probably hasn't renewed?
Do you think that's probably the case?
Can you jump out for me
so I can just get out of the road if that's all right?
This could be an expensive oversight -
driving without insurance could cost him a £300 fine,
six points on his licence or even prosecution at court.
Let me just try and track it, then, and see when it's dropped off.
Right, so your insurance ran 28th August 2019
to 3rd August 2020 and then it's not renewed for some reason.
It's a bit strange if you're on an auto-renew, though.
The driver's insurance policy expired two months ago.
I'm just wondering
whether if it auto-renewed. it didn't reset the monthly payments
and it's tried to take the whole amount, and there wasn't suff...
I don't know if you've had insufficient funds or anything.
If it came out for the whole year.
That's all I can think it might be, all right.
We're going to have to issue you with some paperwork
and obviously we can't allow the car to continue its journey, I'm afraid,
because obviously it's not insured.
Yeah, I mean, by all means, give them a ring,
see if you can, and if turns out it's an admin error,
then I can rip the paperwork up and go from there.
So if you want to jump in and give them a call, absolutely no problem.
All right.
Oh, mate, it's a bit of a strange one.
Well, it's not a strange one, he's got proof in his bank
that it's going out, but not now,
it should be an auto-renew but it's said nothing's gone out.
Since powers to stop
and seize uninsured vehicles were introduced, UK police forces
have taken over two million uninsured motors off the road.
Lee might be adding to that tally.
Any joy?
We have to report you for no insurance, OK?
Just have to tell you the official bits,
so you will be reported for the consideration of the question
of prosecuting you for the relevant offence shown above on here,
which is driving a motor vehicle with no insurance, all right?
You do not have to say anything but may harm your defence...
The Peugeot will be seized,
leaving the uninsured driver with wet walk home.
I'll take this now, I'll take it to our compound,
they'll collect it from there. OK, cheers, thanks.
For driving without insurance,
he was issued with a traffic offence report.
Hopefully he'll remember to pay it.
