Four fines issued during holiday traffic check on A2 near Elsloo

Dutch police fined four drivers during a holiday traffic check on the A2 motorway near Elsloo last Saturday. The check targeted caravans, trailers, folding campers and motorhomes. All vehicles were weighed and inspected for compliance with legal requirements. Three drivers were fined for speeding, one for a defective breakaway brake system (losbreekreminrichting). Another driver was found with a fake driving licence; his car contained stolen copper, both the car and the copper were seized. Warnings were also issued for overloading, failure to produce a registration certificate, an insufficiently visible licence plate and worn caravan tyres. The fire service was present, checking the safety of fire extinguishers and gas cylinders in caravans and motorhomes.
