Police catch NINE people travelling in an uninsured Skoda Octavia in North Yorkshire
North Yorkshire police have released footage of the moment 9 people exited an uninsured Skoda Octavia after being pulled over by officers.
The astonishing moment was recorded on the officers' police vehicle's dashcam.
A spokesperson for the force, said: "We always expect the unexpected when we stop a vehicle, but this one took us by surprise.
"Nine people in an uninsured, unroadworthy Skoda Octavia.
"It was stopped in Norton, Malton, during our targeted deployments for UN Global Road Safety Week.
"The driver was carrying one passenger up front, and five on the back seat. Officers then found two women in the boot.
"The car was uninsured. The front tyre was so badly worn, the inner cord was exposed. Two of the doors didn't even open.
"If it had been involved in a collision, the consequences don't bear thinking about. It would have caused utter carnage."
North Yorkshire police confirmed that the vehicle was seized and the driver was reported for dangerous driving and having no insurance.
A "taxi for nine" was called to take them away.
