Orange DVLA clamp, immobilising a black mini vehicle, where UK car tax has not been paid, Grappenhall, Warrington, Cheshire, North West England, UK
It is illegal for a private company to wheel-clamp a car on private land in Scotland. In exceptional cases, the police, the local authority or the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency - DVLA - can clamp or get cars towed away on private land. The police, the local authority or the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency - DVLA can clamp and tow away cars or other vehicles parked illegally on roads or public land. The DVLA may act when it has the lawful authority to do so when a car is untaxed unless it is on your own property. For example, the police or the local authority can remove a car that is contravening a parking restriction, is blocking the road or has broken down. Fines Enforcement Officers can organise for a car to be seized if you have not paid a number of fines. Another organisation that can clamp or tow cars is the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency (VOSA). VOSA enforcement officers can do this when a car is a danger to road users. This often applies to commercial vehicles such as lorries where they are not roadworthy, they are overloaded, the driver has been driving for too many hours or has not paid a financial fine that VOSA has issued to them.
