Pop-up police vehicle check
A police strategy for finding vehicles which do not have current licence or insurance (or have been reported stolen) is to set up a check point, somewhere with a dual carriageway or layby or slip road so that vehicles can be pulled over without disrupting the traffic flow. They use a substantial team of police officers - there are ten visible in the photo - so they can check several vehicles at the same time. They appear suddenly, check for a few hours, and move on somewhere else.
[edit] I see from Image that another Geograph contributor photographed another check in the same place, back in March 2012.

An Unpleasant Surprise On Horn Lane
Well unpleasant for any motorists driving a vehicle that catches the eye of the Police Officers as they carry out spot checks. There were a couple of Police motocyclists waiting on the corner of Noel Road (out of shot on the left) and a traffic car waiting further back on Horn Lane in case of any motorists doing a runner. This was the second operation of this sort that I saw during the day - the other was in Craven Park.

Gated alley off Noel Road, North Acton
A few years ago this service road providing access to garages of houses had become a rat run from Cecil Road to Noel Road. It was then made one way which made it useless as a rat run. Later, an alley gating scheme became available in Ealing. The council community safety team provided gates. All residents with access to the alley had to agree to the scheme, and then received keys to the gates.
