A van was seized after police in Nottinghamshire found the driver was uninsured – and one of the tyres was “dangerous”.
Nottinghamshire Police’s roads policing team said the white Ford Transit truck was stopped as part of Operation Tramline, targeting “dangerously driven commercial vehicles to reduce the number of incidents caused by unsafe driver behaviour”.
A team spokesman said: “The driver was not correctly insured, and one of the rear tyres was dangerously underinflated and had insufficient tread.
“The driver was reported and the vehicle seized.”
