Warnings issued as vehicles caught doing burnouts and donuts as 300 cars meet in Skegness car park

Three hundred cars that descended on a Skegness car park for a meet on Easter Sunday were checked by police and 12 Traffic Offence Reports (TORs) were issued

The TORs were issued at a car meet held at the Festival carpark in Skegness on Easter Sunday (March 31).

Police said every vehicle were checked, and a total of 12 TORs for tints on windows to driving without due care.

Around 50 cars displaying illegal number plates, had window tints, and other modifications were stopped, and drivers were given a Section 59 warning.

All illegal modifications and amendments were removed after the warnings were issued.

Section 59 covers the anti-social use of motor vehicles. If someone drives or rides a vehicle in an anti-social manner, the driver as well as the vehicle can be warned and issued with a suitable notice that lasts for 12 months. A second Section 59 warning can mean the vehicle may be seized.

Five cars caught doing burnouts and donuts at the car park were also stopped and issued Section 59 warnings. A BMW and a Vauxhall Corsa were also seized for no tax and for a second Section 59 warning.
