Police seized 41 vehicles during a two-day traffic operation earlier this week.
Officers were out in force with partner agencies as part of Operation Unity, which targeted a range of offences on the roads.
Check sites were set up in Gorton, Eastlands, Bolton and Manchester and during the course of the two days 575 vehicles were stopped.
Twelve vehicles were seized for being used illegally in the UK, 24 vehicles were seized for no insurance, two were seized for being driven without a licence and three were seized by the DVLA.
Police also issued 100 Traffic Offence Reports (TORs) to motorists, including 43 to drivers using a mobile phone and 16 for seatbelt offences.
The Drive & Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) issued 55 prohibitions to commercial drivers for vehicle defects.
One vehicle was dealt with for red diesel, six taxi drivers were suspended and a 50-year old man was arrested on suspicion of two robberies in Tameside and remains in police custody for questioning.
Sergeant Garry Lyle from GMP’s Traffic Enforcement Unit said: “Partners and officers came together over the last two days to target offenders and send a stark reminder out to motorists that we will not let them compromise the safety of others on our roads.
“The Traffic Enforcement Unit deals with offences such as these on a daily basis but not to the same extent. We’re really grateful to our partners for assisting us throughout the operation and look forward to doing more of the same in the very near future.”

This morning, Thursday 2 February 2017, officers executed warrants at addresses across Miles Platting and Ancoats.
The warrants were executed as part of Operation Rudow a multi-agency operation targeting organised crime and the supply of drugs across Greater Manchester.
Chief Inspector Andy Cunliffe, of GMP’s City of Manchester team, said: "Drugs ruin lives and destroy communities. We will systematically root out and dismantle groups that seek to profit from flooding our streets with drugs.
"Today, we have made arrests after executing warrants across North Manchester.
"By sharing information with our partners, we are better equipped to tackle organised crime and make it impossible for them to profit from it.
"I'd like to thank the community who came forward with information that has proved vital in making this enforcement action a success.
“We still however, need people to come forward with information to prevent people from benefiting from the proceeds of crime at the demise of others. If you know about it, report it.
"Organised crime has no place on the streets of Greater Manchester and we will continue to work tirelessly to remove the scourge of criminal gangs."
Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Yesterday, Wednesday 5 June 2013, over 120 officers from Lancashire, Merseyside, Cheshire and Greater Manchester Police, took part in a day of action to reduce criminality on the roads and improve road safety.
The operation, commanded by Superintendent Thompson and coordinated by Greater Manchester Police, saw vehicle check sites set up in Lancashire, Cheshire and Merseyside force areas, supported by partners from the Environment Agency, Trading Standards, RSPCA, VOSA and HMRC.
GMP's Anpr Intercept, Traffic Enforcement teams and Road Policing units conducted enforcement throughout the region, supported by Traffic PCSO's.
Officers from GMP's Tactical Aid and Tactical Dog Units were deployed at the sites to provide specialist search capability.
Highways Agency staff also supported the operation by providing assistance to officers and distributing road safety leaflets to motorists.
The operation generated a large volume of media interest, resulting in the several interviews being provided by Superintendent Thompson and Chief Inspector Buckle to ITV National and Regional News, Crime Watch Road Show and a number of local radio stations.
The day saw over 300 vehicles stopped, 7 offenders arrested for a variety of offences including, possession of a controlled drug with intent to supply, assault and theft of two motor vehicles.
192 motorists were breathalysed, contributing to the ACPO national drink drive campaign, 223 motorists dealt with under Road Traffic Act legislation and 19 vehicles seized for being driven without insurance, licence or in an anti social manner.

RICHMOND, Virginia – A weeklong, large-scale gang enforcement operation, labeled “Operation Washout” wrapped up on May 24, resulting in 90 arrests of alleged violent offenders and fugitives.
The U.S. Marshals Service led multiple federal, state and local law enforcement agencies working around the clock May 20-24, concentrating their efforts primarily on known gang members wanted in the Richmond and Tri-Cities areas. Of the 90 arrests, 22 were documented gang members. Many other arrests were of suspected gang members or associates. Additional state and federal prosecutions are pending on those arrested where drug, gun or other crime evidence was seized during or subsequent to the person’s arrest.
The U.S. Marshals Service’s national fugitive initiative known as Operation Washout is deployed to local communities to bring immediate relief from violent, gang-related crime. The collaborative law enforcement effort is focused on targeting and arresting violent fugitives wanted for high-profile crimes such as homicide, felony assault and sexual assault, illegal possession of firearms, illegal drug distribution, robbery and arson.

The convoy leaves Bolton Police Station.
An initiative to strengthen community spirit and tackle crime in Halliwell was launched this week by police and Bolton Council.
Operation Viking, which will run for 12 weeks, will see more officers working in the area and focusing in particular on those who trade in stolen goods.
To mark the launch of the operation, raids were carried out at addresses in Halliwell and other areas of the town, resulting in 8 arrests.
Reassurance leaflets were delivered to neighbouring premises and households as the raids were executed, and messages were sent out on Twitter to inform people what was happening.
Following the raids a community event was staged at the ‘Cop Shop’ mobile police station in the heart of the area.
The event was attended by key members of the Viking team, including local police officers, the council’s community safety team and local council members, and allowed residents and businesses to talk to those involved and ask questions about the initiative.
The community safety team handed out crime prevention materials and newsletters focusing on Halliwell, and community volunteers were on hand to inform people about the work they do. Police mascot ‘Pippa the Panda’ was also available to hand out stickers and balloons to children.
Chief Inspector Carol Martin, who is leading on Operation Viking, said: “This fresh injection of officers is intended to support the good work that is already being done in Halliwell by the local neighbourhood policing team. As well as working closely with the council, we want the community to get involved by offering solutions to problems, or by approaching us with any information about criminal activity.
“It is vital that we work together to drive down crime in the area, and I would urge people to always say no if they are offered stolen goods, as there is a victim behind each one. Finally, I have a simple message for anyone selling such items – we are committed to rooting out offenders, and we will use all our powers to bring you to justice.”

Six people have been arrested after an operation to tackle the violent theft of jewellery in Stockport.
Operation Monument was set up by Greater Manchester Police to target those suspected of being involved in a series of violent burglaries in Stockport.
The break-ins have been committed at the homes of predominately Asian families with the specific intent of stealing gold jewellery.
During a number of these burglaries the families themselves have been subjected to extreme and unprovoked levels of violence, with offenders using weapons such as knives, bats and crowbars to attack their victims.
Today, Thursday 11 December 2014, Greater Manchester Police carried out ten warrants in the Tameside, North Manchester and Stockport areas of Greater Manchester following an investigation to identify those responsible for these violent burglaries.
As a result, five people have been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit burglary and robbery and remain in police custody for questioning.
One person has also been arrested on suspicion of possessing Class A drugs with intent to supply.
As part of the raids, officers have seized a number of vehicles, including off-road motorcycles, some Class A drugs and several thousand pounds in cash.
Detective Sergeant John O’Driscoll from Stockport, said: “Today's action demonstrates our ongoing commitment to dismantling criminals involved in these violent robberies.
“We are aware that there has been a recent spike in incidents where predominately Asian families have been targeted in their own homes and gold jewellery stolen, these criminals are having a serious impact on the Asian community with people no longer feeling safe at home.
"What today is all about is taking a stand against these offenders and sending out a message that we will not allow innocent members of our communities to be terrorised in this way and we will identify those responsible and bring them to justice.
"There are a number of steps we would advise people take to protect themselves against this type of crime. For instance, keeping your jewellery in a safety deposit box at your local bank rather than in your home, or if you would prefer to keep the jewellery at home invest in a good quality safe which complies with official insurance rating standards and is secured to a wall or to the floor.
"Other more simple steps include double-locking your doors and windows, use timer switches on lamps to give the impression somebody is at home or keep a light on in the evening when you leave, consider installing alarms and 'dusk to dawn' security lighting or installing CCTV cameras outside your home."

Early morning raids saw four arrested as officers executed several drug warrants across Tameside.
Today (Wednesday 19 June 2019) warrants were executed across seven addresses as part of a crackdown on the supply of Class A and B drugs – codenamed Operation Leporine.
Following today’s action, two men – aged 21 and 27 – and two women – aged 21 and 52 - have been arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A and B drugs.
Sergeant Stephanie O’Brien, of GMP’s Tameside district, said: “At present we have four people in custody and as part of this morning’s operation we have been able to seize a significant quantity of drugs.
“I would like to thank the team here in Tameside who, as part of Operation Leporine, have worked tirelessly in order to bring a sophisticated and audacious group of offenders to justice.
“The supply of illegal drugs blights communities and destroys people’s livelihoods; and I hope that today’s very direct and visible action demonstrates to the local community that we are doing all that we to make the streets of Tameside a safer place.
“It will remain a top priority for us to continue to tackle the influx of drugs in the area, however we cannot do this alone and I would appeal directly to the community and those most affected to please come forward with any information that could assist us in what continues to be an ongoing operation.”
Anyone with information should contact police on 101, or alternatively reports can be made to the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Dawn raids saw 5 people arrested as part of a crackdown on an organised crime group operating across several areas in England.
This morning (Thursday 16 May 2019) a team of officers executed warrants at 7 addresses in Oldham.
The warrants were executed as part of Operation Hansford – set up by GMP officers to target an organised crime group believed to be involved in crimes committed across England, spanning several force areas- including Greater Manchester, West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Lancashire.
As part of Operation Hansford detectives have investigated 120 offences including aggravated burglary, robbery, car theft, assault, violent disorder and criminal damage – all believed to be orchestrated by the same organised crime group.
Chief Superintendent Neil Evans, GMP’s Territorial Commander with responsibility for Oldham said: “Today we have 5 people in custody and that is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the team here in Oldham, who have worked tirelessly in order to disrupt this organised crime group.
“Today’s action has been supported from officers across GMP; however I would also like to take this opportunity to thank our colleagues from West Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Derbyshire and Lancashire – all of whom have supported this investigation from the very outset.
“The importance of our investigation and the severity of the crimes committed should not be underestimated. Organised criminal activity destroys people’s livelihoods and blights communities. I hope that today’s action demonstrates to those who have been affected by such criminality just how dedicated we are in bringing those responsible to justice, as well as our absolute commitment to making the streets of Greater Manchester a safer place.
“I would also like to emphasise that Operation Hansford remains very much ongoing.”
Anyone with information should contact police on 101 or the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.

Three people have been arrested following dawn raids aimed at disrupting the supply of drugs and the criminal exploitation of vulnerable adults in Manchester.
Shortly after 6am this morning (Friday 15 March) officers executed search warrants at six addresses in the Beswick area of Manchester.
Three men, two aged 18 and one aged 22 were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to supply Class A drugs and engaging in human trafficking for the purpose of criminal exploitation.
The arrests were made as part of Operation Fosbury, an ongoing investigation being led by the City of Manchester Complex Safeguarding Hub into the exploitation of vulnerable adults and children within the Beswick area.
The new multi-agency team* which includes specialist detectives from GMP, has been established to combat the increasing risk of vulnerable people, particularly young people, being sexually and criminally exploited.
Detective Inspector Andy Buckthorpe from GMP’s Complex Safeguarding hub said: “Our aim is to target and disrupt those individuals who seek to exploit children and vulnerable adults and we will take every opportunity to target and prosecute offenders.
“This particular investigation focuses on helping vulnerable people who we believe have been exploited and forced to drug deals in other areas of the UK in what is widely known as ‘County Lines’ offending.
“As a result of the investigation, we have been able to identify a number of vulnerable people within the Manchester area who have been exploited in the most horrendous way by organised criminals and they will now receive bespoke multi-agency support.”
Criminal exploitation or ‘Trapped’ as it is referred to across Greater Manchester is a form of criminal exploitation that sees offenders use children or vulnerable people for the purposes of selling drugs.
They could be trafficked around the local area, or taken to areas with no obvious links or connections and this often involves the victim being subjected to deception, intimidation, violence, financial exploitation and grooming.

Early morning raids saw four arrested as officers executed several drug warrants across Tameside.
Today (Wednesday 19 June 2019) warrants were executed across seven addresses as part of a crackdown on the supply of Class A and B drugs – codenamed Operation Leporine.
Following today’s action, two men – aged 21 and 27 – and two women – aged 21 and 52 - have been arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A and B drugs.
Sergeant Stephanie O’Brien, of GMP’s Tameside district, said: “At present we have four people in custody and as part of this morning’s operation we have been able to seize a significant quantity of drugs.
“I would like to thank the team here in Tameside who, as part of Operation Leporine, have worked tirelessly in order to bring a sophisticated and audacious group of offenders to justice.
“The supply of illegal drugs blights communities and destroys people’s livelihoods; and I hope that today’s very direct and visible action demonstrates to the local community that we are doing all that we to make the streets of Tameside a safer place.
“It will remain a top priority for us to continue to tackle the influx of drugs in the area, however we cannot do this alone and I would appeal directly to the community and those most affected to please come forward with any information that could assist us in what continues to be an ongoing operation.”
Anyone with information should contact police on 101, or alternatively reports can be made to the independent charity Crimestoppers, anonymously on 0800 555 111.

“Additionally, we have a further person in custody for drugs offences.
“These raids came as the result of extensive intelligence gathering and show our determination in dismantling organised crime networks who commit these kinds of crimes.
“Today’s operation is a response to various types of ATM attacks– including those which use gas explosions to access monies, endangering the lives of anyone caught nearby.
“While the vast majority of people in Greater Manchester work hard for their rewards in life, a small minority think it acceptable to try and shortcut their way via acts of criminality.
“We will do everything in our power to catch and prosecute organised criminals whose offending blights our communities.
“If you believe someone to be involved in criminality, contact police immediately. Your actions will help prevent innocent people becoming the victims of crime.”

Six men have been arrested after raids this morning in Bury and Tameside.
Today (Tuesday 17 October 2017) GMP officers searched a number of properties in Bury, Tameside and Cheetham Hill as part of an investigation into the unlawful sale of medicine and controlled drugs online.
Code-named Operation Pyarr, several million pounds worth of pharmaceutical drugs have been seized in today’s investigation into the multi-million pound international fraud operation.
The investigation has been carried out by the Medicine and Healthcare products Regulatory Authority who are responsible for ensuring that medicines and medical devices are acceptably safe, in conjunction with Bury Police and the Police Service of Northern Ireland.
A total of six men were arrested on suspicion of supplying Class C drugs and remain in police custody for questioning.
Detective Chief Inspector Charlotte Cadden of GMP’s Bury Borough, said: “We have spent the past few months identifying where the public are able to get hold of these controlled drugs, and uncovering who is responsible.
“From our investigation, it is clear that this is a comprehensive operation, with genuine pharmaceuticals being unlawfully removed from the supply chain in the UK and then sold, illegally, online.
“While we have made arrests, we are continuing with our investigation and are committed to finding those who facilitate the supply of illegal substances in Greater Manchester.
“I’m asking for the public to continue to report anything suspicious to the police, and ensure that we can look after the public who are taken in by drugs that they believe are legal.”
