With New Year celebrations set to take place all over the world today, many people celebrate in the same way - with fireworks.
But experts have warned your New Year might not get off to the best start if you don't follow a little-known rule when bringing your fireworks home. An expert is warning motorists it is illegal to buy and transport too many fireworks unless you hold a valid registration or licence to do so.
Managing director at Select Car Leasing Graham Conway warned drivers if they are caught travelling with in excess of 50kg of fireworks, it could lead to hefty punishments. He said: “Drivers can be punished with a £300 fine, six penalty points and invalidated insurance cover if they don’t follow the rules."
