Costa urged to crack down on dodgy truckies, despite previous complaints about safety problems Police have vowed to crack down on motorists using illegal trailer trucks on the south coast of England, after a series of deadly accidents involving vehicles designed to drive from mainland Britain to Spain. Officers have released pictures of cars, trucks and vans allegedly loaded with illicitly imported trailers from Germany, Spain, Italy and France being used to transport alcohol and cocaine. But the number of such vehicles has risen in the past year after police carried out undercover operations. The pictures show two trucks being loaded with up to 20 alcohol bottles each - believed to be from the Spanish and Spanish-speaking regions of Portugal, Spain, and Spain-based Córdoba. Police are now warning residents to be wary of such vehicles as they frequently ply the area. Officers launched the anti-trailer operation on June 26 following a string of serious road accidents in the region. The drivers involved have not been arrested. Officers have urged residents to report any illegal trucks to police. Det Insp Mark Gough, from Cambridgeshire and Lincolnshire Police, said: "The trucks we receive are designed to carry illegal drugs or alcohol on a large volume - so they can quickly get to Spain or England, which we want them to avoid. "This is a serious issue that we must address and we will make sure that there is enough of an impact on the numbers of trucks as they pass through to help us deter them and help us crack down on them." The Cádiz department has more than 90,000 people living in its county of 16,000. The move to reduce driving risks follows a number of other incidents involving illegal trailers - including crashes between vans fitted with lorries and lorries used in other illegal activity - and on and off-highway motorbikes. The truck companies in the area say it is all a business. They say there is no evidence there is any alcohol or drugs being consumed in any of the trucks. They also maintain that these vehicles are not illegal and police forces have no powers to shut them down. In 2012 a gang of around 15 drivers allegedly hijacked a lorry fitted with a trailer and set it on fire after driving it off a bridge. There have also been other problems around Calais. In April, a lorry driven by a German driver who failed to report was discovered to be carrying more than 20 illegal trailers, some of which were stolen. In March, police said the number of lorry-mounted mobile vans being used to transport illegal drugs and alcohol had risen by 1,100 a month since October 2010.
