Delivery drivers in Wimbledon have been targeted by police which saw mopeds seized and arrests made.
Trinity Ward Police joined forces with immigration officers last Friday (February 8) as they set up in Hartfield Road to "specifically target food delivery" riders.
They said they aim was to "promote road safety and ensure appropriate insurance in place" as well as "disrupt anyone who entered the UK illegally and/or has no right to work here."
During the operation, 26 motorcyclists were stopped and spoke to, with nearly one in five found to have committed some form of offence.
Police said that motorcycle was seized, one rider processed for no insurance, another for having no driving license while a third was processed for no MOT.
To top it all off, a fourth rider was arrested for a range of traffic offences.
