A Volkswagen Golf has been seized - after it was allegedly spotted 'weaving through traffic at high speed in bad weather' - on Mancunian Way on Saturday night.
Greater Manchester Police say the driver had received a Section 59 warning from Lancashire Police last December and the vehicle was seized after being served with a Section 60 authority last night.
A Section 60 is a unique power intended to prevent serious violence or the commission of offences involving the use of weapons or dangerous instruments and must only be applied where its use can be justified.
