The first of four programmes featuring the work of an elite police squad in the Bristol and West Country region. With up to 1,800 cars being stolen each month, high-speed chases causing damage and death, and teenagers making £1,000 weekly through wheel and tyre theft, the police were forced to admit to a situation out of control. They launched "Operation Impact" which saw the law fight back in what had become the car crime capital of Britain.
