Motorist caught driving with broken accelerator cable

Vehicle seized for being in dangerous condition

Police are urging people to leave vehicles which are not roadworthy off the roads.

The Roads Policing Unit says it dealt with a motorist driving with a broken accelerator cable last night.

The individual had put the cable through the window and was pulling on it manually as a 'means of propulsion'.

Officers say the vehicle was seized for being in a dangerous condition.
