Whitchurch, this driver was stopped on the A41 due to his car being notified off the road, also provisional licence holder (unsupervised), then tested positive for drugs = arrest & car seized. 2nd time in 10 days!!! OR24
After an #opsnap submission from a concerned driver, we located this vehicle and witnessed their poor driving for ourselves!
Driving at nearly 100mph, with no insurance, an illegal tyre and testing positive for drugs we introduced them to custody

Nice car! Shame the driver was on his phone 🤳 whilst driving on the M54 near Cosford, and then found to be disqualified!!! Vehicle recovered, driver reported, court awaits! #fatal4 OR29
To drive using a provisional licence you need:
- L plates displayed.
- A passenger who is over 21 and held a full licence for 3+ years.
- Dual controls if you are using the Motorway.
This driver didn't have dual controls and car has now been seized... TH

Things we don't recommend:
💔 Having a domestic with your ex
🍻 Driving off drunk
🗣️ Boasting about how you will fail to stop for Police...
When said driver saw us in his rear view mirror it was game over.
