A man has been arrested after driving through York in this.

North Yorkshire traffic officer Mark Patterson assisted on the arrest.

He tweeted that the driver had been given a roadside drugs test and tested positive “which may explain why he thought his vehicle was roadworthy!”

The car has been taken off the road and a sample of the driver’s blood is heading for the forensics lab for analysis.
