A taxi driver has been reported for 'driving without due care and attention' after being stopped by an unmarked police car in West Yorkshire.

Sergeant Teri Green, of the Shipley Neighbourhood Policing Team, tweeted @WYPSgt2008Green: "Amazing what you see in an unmarked police car.

"Taxi driver reported for driving without due care and attention.

"He took a slight detour to avoid a red light and nearly crashed head on into the police car.

"Thanks to Patrol Team 5 for their support with this."

One Twitter user feels the driver should now lose his taxi licence, saying: "He should lose his licence. He's a professional driver.

"You would go after an HGV driver's licence. It is the same situation had happened if he was driving an HGV."
