Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

VOSA officers’ powers across England and Wales and extend them to Scotland and to DVA (Driver and Vehicle Agency) in Northern Ireland. Officers will be allowed to stop a vehicle at the roadside in order to make a routine check of drivers’ hours compliance, overloading or paperwork, without having to first undertake an assessment of the mechanical condition as is the case now. New offences of impersonating or obstructing an officer are also proposed.
