A man stopped by police in Nottingham told officers he had been driving without a licence or insurance for more than 70 years.

 

Officers on a routine patrol said they were stunned when they pulled over the driver in his 80s in a supermarket car park. The man, born in 1938, told them he had not had a driving licence or insurance since he was 12 years old, and had avoided being stopped by police ever since.

 

Nottinghamshire police officers said they just happened to pull over the man driving a three-door Mini One in a Tesco Extra car park in the market town of Bulwell on Wednesday.
