Officers stopped a tractor in Derbyshire and discovered a ‘recipe for disaster’ – with a number of safety issues left unresolved by the driver.

On Friday, February 17, the Derbyshire Roads Policing Unit (DRPU) stopped a tractor at Turnditch due to a “multitude of issues.”

In a tweet, a DRPU spokesperson said: “Tear in the tyre wall, breakaway not attached and neither was the power source to the light board.

”These things are there for a reason and need to be maintained. Recipe for disaster.”

The driver of the tractor was subsequently reported for the faults discovered by officers.
