VOSA shreds limo - illegal limousines get crushed

In what is being considered the biggest show of force to date from VOSA – two stretch limousines have been crushed and shredded.

The Ford Excursions were seized from a South Wales company because they were being operated illegally and did not meet safety regulations which VOSA enforce.

Thechauffeur.com was there to see the limousines being put through the world’s biggest metal shredder in Newport operated by Sims Management. The owner of the limousine was not present at the event and you can see why, as massive cranes tossed the limousines around like toy cars, and are now heading for China to be recycled.



Companies running passenger service vehicles (PSV’s) with eight seats or more must have an Operator’s Licence to show that they meet strict rules on safety procedures and financial standing. In 2009 VOSA was given new powers to impound and, in some cases, destroy vehicles which were being used without a licence.

This was the first time a limousine has been destroyed in this manner by VOSA, and now it is hoping the shocking images and video will send a strong message to those who continue to flout the laws.

  1. Good move by Vosa! It's vital that the rules are follwed when it comes to Limousine. When you consider that your transporting humans - not parcels or stock - it's imperitive that these vehicles meet the standards of Vosa - it always pays to be legal - as the company in South Wales can testify!

    Thanks
