A motorist had his car seized by police in Derbyshire after being stopped twice in six days.

Langley Mill Safer Neighbourhood Team spokesperson said: “Officers were patrolling our hotspot areas in Langley Mill last night when they noticed some questionable driving.

“From talking to the driver it turns out he had only been stopped by police six days earlier for not having insurance when driving. Turns out he has not learnt his lesson, he did not have insurance for this vehicle either.
