He charged people £1,500 a time to take their tests and sat at least 36
A serial fraudster charged at least 36 learner drivers up to £1,500 a time to take their driving theory tests for them, a court heard. Satwinder Singh, 34, took the tests - which costs just £23 - for non-English speakers over a four-year period.
He was found to be holding a driving licence under the name of Amritpal Singh. Singh, of Swansea, admitted the specific offences of impersonating genuine test candidates for payment at Person and Reed test centres. Singh also asked for 35 other similar offences to be taken into consideration ahead of his sentencing. The other test centres he targeted were in locations such as Manchester, Sheffield, Southgate, Oxford, Aylesbury, Guildford, Staines and Bristol.
The DVSA released a gallery of CCTV stills showing Singh posing as candidates at various test centres after his magistrates' court appearance. He faces up to ten years in jail.
