Operation Cubit targeted Dover District on Thursday 31 January and Friday 1 February and removed 7 abandoned and untaxed vehicles from the streets of the area.
Operation Cubit is run in partnership across the county by Kent Police, Kent County Council, Kent District Councils (including Dover District Council), Medway Unitary Authority, Kent Fire and Rescue Service, NSL (formerly NCP), and the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA).
Once removed from the streets, abandoned and untaxed vehicles are taken to a compound. Vehicles not claimed within the prescribed period (usually seven days) can be destroyed. Vehicle owners have to pay fees and charges to reclaim their vehicle.
