Some infringements of the regulations may represent unfair competition or fraud. The goal of the operation is to combat conduct which is not permitted, for instance:

  • Parking or circulating with the intention of attracting customers who have not contracted the service in advance.
  • Providing service with driving licences revoked or without the mandatory insurance.
  • Not having a valid MOT.
  • Driving while over the legal alcohol limit or with drugs present in the body or refusing to take the corresponding tests.
  • Not complying with established working hours or days of rest.
  • Not having the established pricing list.
