A CAR has been seized by police after an incident in North Yorkshire.

The county’s police force say that Sergeant Chris Ross was on patrol on Monday night in Scarborough (September 16) when he saw a Ford Mondeo being driven in ‘an overly cautious manner’ in Vernon Road.

A police spokesman said: “The driver then clipped the kerb as he attempted to enter the Palm Court multi-storey car park. After Sgt Ross activated his blue lights, the driver stopped prior to entering the car park. 

“Checks were conducted and the driver, a 22-year-old man from Sandwell, was found to only have a UK provisional driving licence. Further checks were made, which then found that the man wasn't covered on the insurance either. 

“The car was seized and the driver has been reported for the offences. The driver was also breathalysed at the scene, blowing zero.”
