In a landmark ruling, the Federal High Court has put a stop to the Vehicle Inspection Office (VIO) from confiscating vehicles and slapping drivers with hefty fines.
Court declared these actions beyond the agency’s legal powers, marking a major victory for motorists.
The ruling follows rising complaints from drivers nationwide, challenging the VIO’s authority to act as both judge and enforcer.
Decision is set to reshape road safety enforcement, bringing relief to thousands of drivers while reinforcing the need for clear legal boundaries in vehicle inspection practices.
