A woman from South Wales in Great Britain has been sentenced to jail after she was discovered that she fraudulentlytook approximately 150 practical and theory driving tests for people across England and Wales who had difficulty speaking English.

Inderjeet Kaur, from the town of Llanelli, began taking the tests in 2018 and continued the fraudulent activity until 2020, travelling to the places such as Swansea, Carmarthen, Birmingham and London.

Nevertheless, staff at test centres soon became suspicious of the returning face, and following a referral from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA), an investigation was launched into the matter.

The investigation, carried out by Tarian – the regional organised crime team for southern Wales – discovered that the 29-year-old woman had started the service in a bid to attract test applicants who struggled to speak English.
