<p>No estimate has been made on the number of unlicensed vehicles that remain on the
public road with a Statutory off Road Notification (SORN) after being clamped by the
Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA). However, we expect the majority of these
vehicles to have been licensed or moved off the public highway.</p><p> </p><p>Any
vehicles remaining unlicensed on the public highway risk being clamped again. When
a vehicle is clamped by the DVLA for being unlicensed and with a SORN in force the
keeper is required to relicense the vehicle or pay a surety in order for the clamp
to be removed. If no action is taken, then the vehicle is removed from the public
highway to a pound within 72 hours.</p><p> </p><p>Local authorities and the police
can also clamp and impound unlicensed or abandoned vehicles.</p>
