Each month, members of the Katesgrove NAG tour an area of Katesgrove with officers from Reading Borough Council, usually accompanied by one or more of our PCSOs and our Neighbourhood Wardens, looking for anything that brings the appearance of an area down. You can read more about this process and how it helps the area by clicking here.

Our neighbourhood PCSOs will readily issue penalty notices to untaxed vehicles they find on the highway during patrols, but you can also report untaxed vehicles directly to the DVLA.

The vehicle must be parked in a specific location on a regular basis, so that an Agency Inquiry Officer will be able to make a sighting of the vehicle and then complete a formal witness statement.

If you know of an untaxed vehicle that can be regularly seen in a particular place, visit the DVLA website to file a report: http://dvla.gov.uk/onlineservices/report_unlicensed.aspx

You will need to know the registration number of the vehicle, and knowing the make, model, and colour will help. It is also very helpful if you know the postcode of the street - you can look this up on the Royal Mail website: http://postcode.royalmail.com/
