Police in Nottingham have stopped a car packed with 14 people.
Officers stopped the seven-seater Vauxhall Zafira on May 27 believing to be loaded with more people than legally allowed. Police founded 14 people inside - double the 7 legally allowed to travel in the vehicle. The number included 8 children who were not wearing seatbelts while travelling through New Basford in the north of Nottingham.
“Drivers should always adhere to their vehicle’s passenger capacity as failure to do so can have devastating consequences.“Furthermore, driving with more passengers than there are seatbelts can void your car insurance, leaving you uninsured in the event of an accident.“You can also face penalty points on your license and a fine. In severe cases, you might be summoned to court where penalties could be more significant.
