Driver ‘treated Sheffield road as personal race track while carrying friend's child’
South Yorkshire Police’s Operational Support team said the driver was stopped today and the vehicle was seized.
Posting on Facebook, it said: “If you want to treat the road as your personal race track and drive in a manner that falls below that of a careful and competent driver (other descriptions are available and possibly more appropriate), there is every chance that you'll come to the attention of your friendly roads policing officer.

“And if you drive like that to impress your friends whilst transporting another friend's child, you'll find that your friendly roads policing officer might not be all that friendly.
“Vehicle seized and driver reported. We wonder if the magistrate will want to watch the video?”
