Serial fraudster took driving theory tests for people across the country

A serial fraudster charged at least 36 learner drivers up to £1,500 a time to take their driving theory tests for them, a court heard. Satwinder Singh, 34, took the tests - which costs just £23 - for non-English speakers over a four-year period.

The Driving and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) even issued pictures of Singh to centres as a warning while he travelled to test sites up and down the country. He was finally arrested on June 6 this year after he was recognised while trying to take an exam.

He was found to be holding a driving licence under the name of Amritpal Singh. Singh, of Swansea, admitted the specific offences of impersonating genuine test candidates for payment at Person and Reed test centres.
