Police officers have arrested a drug driver with an expired MOT while patroling roads in Ilkeston.

On Saturday, March 11, the Derbyshire Roads Policing Unit (DRPU) stopped a car in Ilkeston after intelligence suggested the motorist has no valid MOT since January.

After they stopped the car, officers noticed a strong smell of drugs.

No drugs have been found during the vehicle search but the driver failed the roadside drug's wipe test for cannabis and cocaine.

The motorist was subsequently taken into custody by DRPU officers.
