Police spotted the man pulling into a store in Nottingham.
The City North OP Reacher team were out on pro-active patrols in Sherwood and Carrington yesterday 26 January.
Police said:
‘We can’t quite believe what happened , as the driver, who was born in 1938 (!!), coughed that he had been driving with no licence and no insurance, since he was 12 (yes TWELVE) years old…..and somehow had managed to never be stopped by the police. (We’ll let you do the maths!!)
‘Thankfully he had never had an accident, caused anyone an injury, and never made anyone lose out financially, by hitting them whilst uninsured!
‘Due to the increased number of ANPR cameras in Nottingham, even on the small trips, you are likely to hit a camera, so make sure your documents are in order…..because it will catch up with you…..one day…..’
