Welsh police stop car after it was driven without a TYRE

Welsh police have stopped a motorist for driving a car which had no front tyre.

The car, which was also missing the driver’s front wing panel, was stopped by astonished officers on Thursday. There were also leads dangling on the road.

To cap it all off the car had, not surprisingly, no current MOT or insurance. The last MOT registered for the car ran out in July 2016.

The driver had only passed their test in November.

Traffic cops stopped the car, a 2001 Peugoet, on Thursday night in Pembrokeshire, west Wales.

Officers then tweeted about the incident and also posted pictures onto social media.

Since they apprehended the driver, officers have now reported the motorist for driving a vehicle in a dangerous condition.

Their message, which was retweeted more than 25 times, added: ‘And yes, it was being driven in that condition on public roads.’

Pembrokeshire police then posted more photographs online to disbelieving social media users to verify what they had just seen.
