Officers in Rushcliffe were alerted to a trailer transporting hay bales dangerously.
Officers were able to establish who the driver was and deal with the matter accordingly.
Police said:
The transport of items such as hay bales is a common occurrence in our rural communities.
‘No matter how many bales are being transported or what the distance is, safety must always come first.
‘There have been incidents before now where hay bales have fallen having not been secured properly or having been incorrectly loaded, resulting in injuries to people and damage to property.
‘It is the responsibility of the person transporting any heavy load to make sure they are safe when doing so.’
