A motorist was unavoidably noticed by motorway police in England. That's when the chancer was spotted driving on tyres worn down to the metal wheel.
The investigating police soon discovered the driver was almost six times over the drink-drive limit.
Police patrols spotted the struggling Citroen car on the M66 near Bury, Greater Manchester, at roughly 1.50am on New Year’s Eve.
The male driver was then breathalysed at the scene and arrested by the officers.
