"Officers stopped the vehicle coming out of the desert onto a public highway meaning not only was the vehicle being used in an anti-social manner but was also putting motorists at risk by using an unroadworthy and uninsured vehicle on a public highway.

“We are dedicated to making sure our roads remain safe for motorists, this seizure demonstrates that we will not tolerate illegal use of the roadways and will take swift and decisive action when dealing with offenders.”
