White van man filmed watching TV show while driving on motorway
- 8 months ago
A white van man who was filmed catching up with his favourite TV show while driving along a major motorway has been nicked by undercover cops.
The driver was seen staring at the programme, which was playing on his mobile phone, as he hammered along the M1, near Rotherham, South Yorks.
Police, who were travelling in an unmarked HGV, videoed the dopey driver glancing several times at the programme as it played on a device strapped to his windscreen.
And despite the officers peering through his window, his attention seemed firmly fixed on the show.
One police officer could be heard saying on the recording: “He’s watching some kind of TV show. I can see him glancing to the left as well while he’s driving.
“His attention is clearly on that screen rather than looking at the road ahead. He’s not even noticed me next to him.” Video via SWNS.
