Driver with 'the worst attitude in the world' caught doing almost 70mph in 30mph zone

A man caught speeding at more than twice the speed limit and with a bad attitude has had his car seized by police.

West Yorkshire Police road policing unit stopped the motorist on East Street in Leeds.

He was driving at almost 70mph in a 30mph area with his 10-year-old son in the silver Mercedes.

In a tweet the police revealed it wasn't the first time he had been stopped - saying "this driver clearly hadn't learnt his lesson from August this year when another member of the team gave him a section 59 warning regarding his manner of driving."

In a Twitter thread the force then added "driver with the worst attitude in the world reported and vehicle seized".
