All drivers in the UK have been warned they face a £5,000 fine and three-points on their license for wearing the wrong sunglasses to drive. The warning comes ahead of this weekend's heatwave.
Over the coming week, temperatures are set to rise across Britain, reaching highs of 33 degrees in London on Friday. The soaring temperatures are likely to mean a lot more sun than usual.
As such, drivers are likely to don a pair of shades. But few people realize that wearing the wrong pair could land you with a fine. That's not to say you can't or shouldn't wear sunglasses, but if they obstruct your view enough for it to be considered dangerous, it could get you in trouble.
