A driver has been caught towing a trailer while in lane three of a motorway.

Cars which are towing trailers shouldn't drive above 60mph when on a motorway, meaning the outside lane is very much out of bounds.

North West Motorway Police issued a Road Traffic Offence (TOR) to the driver who was travelling along a stretch of the M6.

In a post on Facebook NW Motorway Police said: "A driver has been issued with a TOR for towing a trailer in lane three of the M6 at Knutsford."
