An HGV driver was caught by police using just his elbow to steer a loaded car transporter on a busy motorway. The reckless behaviour was revealed by National Highways, who released footage of the incident.
The company responsible for England’s motorways and major A roads said the driver was initially “oblivious” to the police officers filming him as they drove alongside his car-carrying vehicle in an unmarked HGV cab on the M40 near Gaydon in Warwickshire .
The driver quickly put his hands on the wheel when the officers caught his attention. But he was then pulled over by a police car travelling behind.
