'Dangerous' van stopped by police in Long Eaton

Police have shared images of a 'dangerous' van that was stopped in a town. Officers in Long Eaton seized a van they said had "many dangerous defects".

Derbyshire Roads Policing Unit took to Twitter with their reasons for stopping the driver. Officers also claimed the vehicle had been driving on false plates, which hid the fact the van had no documentation.

Photos shared by the force showed cracks in the front window, along with signs on the van's bodywork that it was in poor condition. Derbyshire Roads Policing Unit said: "#JimmyNail alert Long Eaton. No Eagle eyes required for this, many dangerous defects #prohibited.
