A clampdown on overseas drivers and truckers who flout UK road regulations has been announced by the Government.

Offending non-UK drivers and hauliers could face fines and have their vehicles immobilised under proposals put out for consultation by Road Safety Minister Jim Fitzpatrick.

A new system will give police and examiners from the Vehicle Operator and Services Agency (VOSA) the power to collect on-the-spot penalties from anyone without a satisfactory UK address from next year.
