Police operation shows offenders will get caught

15 February 2013

An operation has been launched in South Yorkshire to clamp down on the number of drivers who provide false details in an attempt to avoid motoring convictions.

The success of Operation Obstruct highlights the work of the Safety Camera Partnership Enquiry Team that actively follows up cases. If individuals are found to have given false information, court action will be taken for any perjury or falsification offences. Offenders may face criminal prosecution and therefore could receive a larger fine or even a prison sentence
