Leeds traffic cop runs into motorway as drivers caught going down M621 the wrong way

A Leeds traffic cop had his work cut out for him this morning when a pair of drivers were caught driving the wrong way down a major motorway.

PC Martin Willis, who was policing the major M621, had put out a road closure on the anti-clockwise carriageway at junction 2A Holbeck Moor, believing this would be enough to stop traffic. But then had to run back out to stop two men from driving down the lane, today just before 5am (May 10).

The West Yorkshire Police Highways Officer took to social media to vent his frustration, posting a video on his Twitter page of the incident. In the video, a car can be seen slowly pulling out in to the entry road in a bid to cut through.
