€9m worth of cars seized in anti-social driving crackdown
In the UK, police seized a limited-edition Ferrari worth over €4.3 million during a crackdown on anti-social driving in central London.
In a crackdown on anti-social driving, Metropolitan Police in central London seized over €9 million worth of vehicles from Kensington, Chelsea and Hyde Park. The operation, which ran from last Friday to Sunday, resulted in the arrest of several individuals and the seizure of high-value cars, including a limited-edition Ferrari Monza SP2 worth more than €4.3 million.
The Ferrari, one of only 499 made, had been in the UK for only a day when it was stopped by police. The driver had only a provisional license and no insurance. Fifteen vehicles were seized under new powers allowing for immediate seizure in cases of anti-social behavior. Special Chief Inspector Geoff Tatman, who led the operation, stated that the aim was to send a clear message that reckless and dangerous behavior would not be tolerated.
The operation also led to the arrest of individuals on suspicion of handling stolen goods, money laundering, drug possession, and immigration offences.
