Immediate Prohibition
An immediate prohibition is a DVSA enforcement action that prevents a commercial vehicle from moving until a serious safety defect is rectified on the spot. Tyre defects such as exposed cords, tread below the legal limit, or incorrect fitment commonly trigger immediate prohibitions. The vehicle cannot continue its journey under any circumstances until repairs are completed.
