White limousine transporting 16 prom goers impounded in Wales

A white stretch hummer limo has been impounded by police after a “shocking” number of faults were uncovered by VOSA officials.

The luxury limo was transporting 16 primary school pupils to a school prom celebration in Llanelli, Wales, when the transport officials seized the vehicle. The party were en route to Trostre Retails Park to celebrate the end of the school year when the limo was inspected.

A member of the public had alerted the authorities to the hummer limo after noticing that one of the doors wasn’t closing properly.

After pulling over the white limousine for inspection, VOSA officers found that the vehicle didn’t have a valid MOT certificate, the brakes were defective, wheel nuts were missing, and the doors wouldn’t shut properly.

For the safety of other road users and the young passengers who were travelling in the faulty limo, the authorities were forced to take the vehicle off the road.

One of the officers involved the inspection of the hummer said he hoped that the impounding of the vehicle would send a strong message out to any rogue operators out there that this kind of practice will not be tolerate. He also added that the safety of limo hire passenger is “paramount” and their main priority.

The vehicle has now been impounded. The owner now has the right to appeal against the seizing of the limo.
