A FOUR-WHEEL drive vehicle was seized on a major Bradford road for having no MOT or tax.

Officers from West Yorkshire Police's Steerside Enforcement Team - the force's dedicated initiative for tackling anti-social and dangerous driving - posted on X yesterday about a vehicle they stopped on Killinghall Road, in Bradford.

The vehicle was a red Mitsubishi.

Checks showed the car had no valid MOT or Vehicle Excise Licence, according to a spokesperson for the Steerside Team.

The driver was also reported for the offences.

Operation Steerside was launched in 2016 specifically to tackle dangerous and anti-social driving in Bradford.

This was two months after the Telegraph & Argus launched its 'Stop the Danger Drivers' campaign.

It then evolved several years later into a multi-agency partnership to tackle crimes on the roads.

As of January this year, Bradford district police had taken action against 15,000 motorists for illegal or anti-social driving.
