Police stopped a van that was seen weaving across lanes on a motorway - only to find the driver eating a plated meal with a knife and fork.
Officers say the van driver was also not wearing a seatbelt while the plate was balancing on their lap.
Officers from North West Motorway Police were alerted to the driver on the M53 motorway on Wednesday, reports The Echo.
The driver has been issued with a traffic offence report (TOR). A TOR allows police to hand out a fixed penalty or order re-education courses.

"Patrol pulled vehicle over found that the driver was actually eating a plated meal with knife and fork - plate balanced on his knee! Male also not wearing his seat belt - issued with TOR's."
