andy Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 From today's Press & Journal: Police caught more than 40 people driving illegally-modified cars in a special operation around Angus recently. Tayside officers worked alongside the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency in Operation Full Bore between November 18-21. They issued 32 conditional offers, reported two people to the procurator fiscal and handed out 10 prohibitions. Inspector Gordon Milne said the force received a significant number of complaints about modified cars - particularly concerning excessive noise from exhausts. "A considerable number of drivers modify their vehicles in a bid to improve the look and performance, without realising that they are obliged to notify their insurance company of the changes and that by failing to doing so, they invalidate their insurance cover," he said. "We are particularly concerned that the people who often carry out such alterations are unqualified and the alterations they make drastically change the handling characteristics of the vehicle."
zeolite Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 Maybe the Tayside section better take note.
2559B Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 << I find this difficult to believe as the rozzers have no way of knowing what you have declared on your insurance. They can tell if you are insured but not how comprehensive your insurance is. I would guess they have made a nice play on words there to scare the sh1t out of people. I would think they mean they have been pulling people for loud exhausts reading between the lines. >> just what I'm thinking !!!
McGoo Posted November 23, 2005 Posted November 23, 2005 << Tayside officers worked alongside the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency in Operation Full Bore between November 18-21. >> Kinda gives the game away of what this was all about.
