Mercedes passenger spotted hanging out of sunroof on motorway 'wanted to be TikTok famous'

A Mercedes passenger filming himself hanging out of the car's sunroof on the M602 was caught out by Greater Manchester Police.

The GMP patrol spotted the reckless passenger filming while the car was travelling down the motorway late on Saturday night.

Police intercepted the vehicle and issued a Traffic Offence Report to the driver and passenger.

GMP Traffic tweeted at 10.48pm: "This Mercedes was seen leaving the #M602 by #XT58.

"The passenger was hoping to become TikTok famous by recording himself hanging out the sunroof!

"His stream was soon ruined by the blue lights of the unmarked car behind watching ‘live’! Driver & passenger reported. #tiktokTOR."

People are reminded to dial 999 in an emergency, or otherwise contact police via the 101 non-emergency number.
