A delivery van has been reported for driving around Reading with bald tyres.
On Thursday, April 6, Thames Valley Police were responding to reports of a driver of a white van who had no insurance.
Upon further investigation, police discovered the van driver did not hold a UK driving licence despite having lived in the UK for eight years.
Moments later a UPS courier van pulled up next to the marked police car.
Police quickly notices both of the UPS van's rear tyres were bald.
In a tweet on TVP Roads Policing, they described them as "balder than the officer's hair line".
Both drivers were reported for the offences mentioned and a tyre replacement company arrived to make the van road legal.
