A man who drove from Luton to Devizes for a McDonald’s has been handed a fixed penalty notice – UKNIP

The 34-year-old from Luton, who had already received a warning, was stopped on Estcourt Street in Devizes on Thursday evening (14/01).
The distance travelled across numerous counties to Devizes, which doesn’t have a McDonald’s restaurant, is a flagrant breach of the regulations currently in place.

A £200 fixed penalty notice was issued as well as the vehicle being seized.
