On 11 July, a recreational vehicle check was held on the A2 near Elsloo, targeting cars with trailers, caravans, folding campers and motorhomes. The operation was run by volunteer police of Limburg unit, supported by the fire brigade, RDW and military police. All vehicles were weighed, documents checked, technical condition inspected (lights, brakes, tyre pressure), and checks for criminal offences carried out. Three speeding fines were issued, one fine for a defective breakaway brake system, and several warnings for overloading, missing registration certificate, obscured licence plate and worn caravan tyres. One driver presented a fake driving licence and his car was found to contain stolen copper — both vehicle and cargo were seized. Firefighters checked fire extinguishers and gas cylinders. Similar checks will be held more often on peak holiday travel days.
