Dozens of untaxed cars clamped in Stroud

Dozens of untaxed cars have been clamped in Stroud over the weekend.

The spike comes as the DVLA cracks down on untaxed vehicles.

A DVLA spokesperson said: “Whilst over 98% of vehicles are taxed correctly, DVLA is committed to keeping untaxed vehicles off our roads.

 “We have a range of enforcement measures including fines and penalties and are working hard with our national wheel clamping partner to clamp untaxed vehicles.

 “It is easy for drivers to pay their vehicle tax, including using our quick and accessible online services or spread the cost using Direct Debit.”
