Cops issue 'top tip' after seizing bright green supercar as driver 'drew attention to himself'

Officers had some words of advice after stopping an 'anti-social' driver who stood out from the crowd. Greater Manchester Police could hardly fail to notice this bright green sports car making its way along the streets of Bolton earlier today (May 28).

With its luminous shade of lime, the luxury car would have been easy to spot even if its driver had been following all the rules of the road. But GMP says the man behind the wheel was actually disqualified from driving.

Officers say the man was also driving in an 'anti-social manner'. GMP says it seized the car and arrested the driver.

Sharing an image on social media this evening, GMP gave Facebook users a 'top tip' following the ordeal. A spokesperson for GMP Bolton West wrote: "Today officers from E relief have seized this motor vehicle as the driver drew attention to himself.

"Top tip, maybe don't drive a high powered expensive bright green motor vehicle in an anti social manner if you're disqualified from driving. The driver has been arrested for a number of offences and the vehicle seized by police."
