Why Are Vehicles Clamped?
From early in 1998 vehicles that are unlicensed and parked on the public road may be wheelclamped.
A vehicle that is clamped and which remains unclaimed for more than 24 hours will be impounded. In some cases the vehicle is seized immediately.
Checks are made of the DVLNI vehicle register before clamping can be authorised, but you should ensure that a valid licence is displayed on the vehicle at all times.
This will avoid having your vehicle wrongly clamped.
