Hide AdPolice said: “We thought everything had become clear when it transpired the driver was disqualified, as well as having no insurance obviously; but it's always worth a little extra dig around.
“As we searched the car we found the reason for the long time they took coming to a stop. In the boot, hiding behind a large sub woofer, was the driver’s partner!
“The reason for the hiding was that HM Prisons had a room waiting for him to return and finish his sentence. Let's hope theres no similar hiding places in his new accommodation!”
