What began as a routine traffic stop resulted in vehicles being seized and multiple offences being reported.

Police officers from the Roads and Armed Policing Team were in Norwich on Monday night (September 21), when they stopped a vehicle on Charing Cross for driving the wrong way down a no-entry street.

Checks revealed the vehicle had no insurance and it was seized.

While dealing with the incident, officers spotted a BMW being driven at speed in an antisocial manner through a residential area.

Officers stopped and seized the car under Section 59 and the driver was also reported.

While waiting for vehicle recovery, officers stopped two more drivers for having no insurance and no driving licence.

A spokesman for the Roads and Armed Policing Team said: "A reminder that road signs, speed limits and insurance requirements are there for a reason.

"Please drive responsibly and help keep Norfolk's roads safe for everyone."
