POLICE have seized a car in Bradford as the driver was found to be uninsured and disqualified from getting behind the wheel. 

Officers from West Yorkshire Police's Steerside Enforcement Team said they saw the Renault overtaking on Leeds Road.

A spokesperson from the team said: "On stopping it, the driver was found to be uninsured and disqualified from driving.

"The vehicle was seized and the driver was reported to court."

It is illegal to drive a vehicle on a road or in a public place without at least third-party insurance, and driving while disqualified is a serious offence.

Operation Steerside was formed in 2016 - two months after the Telegraph & Argus launched its 'Stop the Danger Drivers' campaign.

A dedicated team was set up three years later specifically to tackle crimes on our roads.
