Now Playing Status Quo Rockin' All Over The World

Footy lads' car stunt ends in fine

Too many in one vehicle

Police are urging motorists to use common sense, after six men and almost a dozen footballs were found crammed into a small hatchback.

A Vauxhall Corsa was pulled over after being spotted 'just short of a wheelie' on the Mountain Road yesterday afternoon.

The driver, who was taking his teammates home from a football game, was fined £120 and given three points on his licence.

The Roads Policing Unit says 'it would have been safer and cheaper to pay for a taxi'.
