What is anti social driving anyway.
If it's just going fast the police do it all the time :P

Why is this in a section about driving in France?
You can’t seize a car first time for anti social driving,it’s a warning and then if repeated within a year it can be seized ,this driver had apparently already been warned twice Look up Section 59

I've moved this to chatterbox.

I'd probably have cried if I had a £400,000 Lamborghini seized as well - but he's only got himself to blame really, silly person. :roll:

Having no tax is somewhat anti-social!

It should not be a paywall. You should get the option to register or click, will try that later. Click later and you can read anything.

It's my local Roads Policing Unit and their Twitter report says seized under Section 60.

It's in that section as it looks that's where the OP posted it. That was never an issue on TNFF :lol:

It has had two section 59 warnings and was seized under section 60 apparently. Mysty asked what was anti social driving. Section 59 refers to anti social driving so will tell him what it is

Reading the Tweet It is probably the case that there is more than a year between the two section 59 warnings so no power to confiscate,however a power came from the section 60 offence Oh dear what a pity
