A woman who impersonated other people to sit their driving tests more than 100 times has been jailed for eight months.

Inderjeet Kaur, from Llanelli, admitted to having taken approximately 150 theory and practical driving tests on behalf of candidates between 2018 and 2020.


Swansea Crown Court heard the 29-year-old committed the offences throughout England and Wales, including Swansea, Carmarthen, Birmingham and around London.

Suspicion grew by staff at the test centres that Kaur was impersonating genuine candidates while taking the test.

Following a referral from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency, an investigation by South Wales police found she was offering services to test applicants who had difficulty with the English language.

Detective Chief Inspector Steven Maloney, who led the investigation, said: "The crimes Kaur committed circumvent the driving test process and, in turn, puts innocent road users at risk, by allowing unskilled and dangerous motorists to have seemingly legitimate licences."


Caroline Hicks, from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency, added: "Circumventing the tests puts lives in danger, we have methods in place to detect test fraud and will come down hard on the people involved.

"This includes cancelling test passes that have been gained fraudulently."

How could you not recognize someone who does things so frequently?

A joke

I am surprised she managed to fool both the theory test and the practical test as your photo ID is checked during these. I passed my civilian driving test in 2004 and even then you had to bring your paper counterpart of your provisional licence and your passport for ID purposes.

Very interesting.

My respect for our local RTO increased suddenly

100 times? The only way this makes sense is that the someone was hand-in-glove

True, she would definitely be caught after doing it for 50 times. We are usually double efficient than the brits.

I just got my driving license. No way she could do it at the same centre since the examiners would start recognising her

I don’t know about rest of you, but I want to be on the road with people who actually passed a driving test and (supposedly) know how to drive. There are enough assholes on the road that makes me wonder if Asda had a sale on licenses that day and this criminal Indian Punjabi lady should have been given at least 10 years in prison. For putting so many people in danger of being hit by unqualified drivers she helped scam our system.stupid
B itch

 

[Azadkashmir]

duh you pay off the guy who checks your id. everyone gets a cut.

 

[PakAlp]

She couldn't have done it alone. The driving test examiner checks your driving license before the test, they can also recognise the driver if they keep coming back for new tests, the theory is also the same. Definitely has the examiner, theory test workers on the payroll.

It is hard to catch Indian forgery.
