Edinburgh police seize Range Rover from reckless Newington motorist

Edinburgh police were left less than impressed after pulling over a motorist in the Newington area of the city who didn't have a driving license or any insurance.

The incident occurred on the afternoon of Monday 9 November and police have now seized the vehicle from the irresponsible motorist.

Edinburgh Road Police have been busy across the city lately cracking down on speeding drivers and reckless motorists.

Recently Police officers targeted the Portobello area of the city on the lookout for speedy drivers after they received complaints from the local community.

One driver in Portobello also had their vehicle removed after they were caught driving in the beach side area without a license.

Commenting on seizing the recent Range Rover, Edinburgh Police said:"The #EdinburghRP stopped this Range Rover in the Newington area of Edinburgh.

"The driver was found to have no driving licence and no insurance. They have been reported to the Procurator Fiscal and the vehicle has been seized."
