THIS is the moment a driver attempting to jump a queue of traffic on a busy road was caught by police.

The video, posted by PC Tom Van Der Wee on Twitter, shows the "speeding" driver skipping the long line of traffic before cutting in at the last moment.

The car was stopped and the driver was dealt with for "driving without reasonable consideration to other road users".

Joking on the social media platform, he said: "Queueing - we hate it, we love it, but we’ve all got to do it!

"After speeding along the #A27, this driver decided he wanted to skip the queue and cut in.

"Vehicle stopped and driver dealt with for driving without reasonable consideration to other road users."

It comes after police caught a dangerous driver who stole his mother’s car and led police on a high-speed chase - going the wrong way down an A27 slip road.

Andrew Smith, 22, only had a provisional licence but reached “excessive” speeds in built-up areas in Brighton.

He was seen both overtaking and undertaking other vehicles as he zoomed at 70mph through 30mph zones.

Police were forced to ram his vehicle to stop him as he went the wrong way down a slip road onto the A27.

Smith was told to complete 20 rehabilitation sessions with the probation service, and was put under curfew from 8pm to 7am for three months.
