A CAR was seized by police after a motorist was caught driving without a licence.

Police were alerted to a car driving in an antisocial manner which was reportedly causing a nuisance in Seaford on Tuesday.

Officers later located the car in Peacehaven.

After speaking with the driver, police found out the car was not insured, and the motorist did not have a full driving licence.

“The car was seized, and they now face a disqualification and hefty fine at court,” a Lewes Police spokesman said.

“Two lessons to be learnt here; Firstly, make sure you and your car are legally allowed to be on the road.

“Secondly, if you're going to flout the law and drive illegally, it's probably not the brightest idea to draw attention to yourself by your poor driving.”

The police spokesman said while waiting for the car to be recovered after it was seized, officers were able to speak with local residents about road safety and show them around their police vehicles.
