The top five areas in South Yorkshire for uninsured drivers have been revealed as the crackdown on those risking lives, safety and costing the economy continues.
Taking the top spot is DN8 in Doncaster, followed by S73 in Barnsley, S25 in Rotherham, S36 in Barnsley and S9 in Sheffield — data provided by the Motor Insurers' Bureau (MIB).
This week, additional officers are patrolling the roads as part of the crackdown on uninsured drivers.
People see driving uninsured as a victimless crime, but it is far from it. The reality is that every 20 minutes someone is hit by an uninsured or hit-and-run driver, every 24 hours at least one person is so seriously injured they require life-long care, and every week at least one person loses their life due to an uninsured driver.
