drug driver Harrogate

Police stopped a vehicle piled high with pallets on the outskirts of Harrogate yesterday (May 9).

Sargent Paul Cording from the roads policing team at North Yorkshire Police, shared details on X, formerly Twitter.

He said:

“A little bit of digging showed the vehicle to be on false plates along with the obvious insecure load.
"As often happens though one thing leads to another, and the driver tested positive for cannabis on a drug wipe.”


Sgt Cording said further inspection revealed the vehicle had false registration plates.

He added:

"The driver was arrested and an evidential blood sample has been obtained which will be sent of for analysis."
