Motorists are being warned over a Highway Code rule that could see them hit with a £100 fine.
Drivers who let their car's fuel gauge drop into the red risk not only damaging their vehicle, but a hefty fine and penalty points, according to the AA. It comes after one member, who caused an obstruction on the road after running out of fuel, was recently hit with a £100 ticket from police.
The same rules apply for those with electric vehicles, who allow the battery to run flat.
