Cops in Wigan have nabbed a driver exceeding the motorway speed limit — in a 30mph zone. Officers were out on patrol in Pemberton on Sunday, April 10, when they stopped the motorist.
Police also seized another car being driven ‘at excessive speed’ by two people who did not have a licence or insurance. The officers from the Neighbourhood Team and Special Constabulary carried out the Traffic Speeding Enforcement Operation on Ormskirk Road.
“A number of drivers were ‘advised’ regarding excessive speed and a number also received Fixed Penalty Notices, the worst being a young lad who thought it was okay to drive at 72mph in a 30!,” PS Hall wrote on the Wigan West division’s Facebook page.
