A driver in Dundee has been charged with Dangerous Driving, after officers saw him operating a car which was almost completely covered in snow.

Only a small, plate sized area of the windscreen had been cleared, with the rest covered in thick snow.

The back of the car was completely covered in snow, causing zero visibility through the rear window.

Highlighting the offence, Dundee Police said via their official Twitter account @DundeePolice: "This car was stopped by our Roads Policing Unit shortly before 10am [11 February], at Kinnoull Rd, Dunsinane Industrial Estate in Dundee.

”The driver has been charged with dangerous driving. We know it‘s inconvenient having to clear your car before you drive, but it MUST be done.”
