Police warn off-road drivers their vehicles could be seized after catching three in New Forest

MOTORISTS who drive off-road in the New Forest are warned their vehicles could be seized after police caught three offenders last week.

Section 59 warnings were issued to the owners of vehicles that had been driven off-road and on to the Forest floor at Bolton’s Bench, Ipley Cross and Holmsley.

A Facebook post by local officers said: “This means that if we see them driving off road again their vehicles will be seized.

“If you ever see anyone driving off road anywhere on the Forest and have a photo and registration number please email richard.williams@hampshire.pnn.police.uk”
