Yet again I find myself at the mercy of drivers who either don't take notice of a ❌ above a closed motorway lane, or choose to ignore it. Our job is inherently dangerous when we deal with incidents in a live lane, and is made more so when this happens. Don't drive in a ❌ lane.

Derby. Corsa driver goes round a roundabout twice then keeps swerving at the very last moment to avoid parked cars. Like a rabbit in headlights when stopped by one of our unmarked cars. Drunk. Arrested and charged. #Fatal4 #DontDrinkDrive #DontGetWrecked

M1. This Ferrari being transported by a self employed car transporter but he doesn't have insurance to do so. Friend who does have insurance called to pick it up. Always check the credentials of those transporting your pride and joy. Driver reported. #Traffic

Earlier on today, M6 Toll on @StaffsPolice area, this driver was recorded driving at an eye watering 152mph ... with his 2 year old daughter in the back. There’s no excuse for this speed, a lengthy ban is highly likely

This driver of this Fiesta is going to have an uncomfortable day at court in the future. We detected them driving at 90mph in a 40mph limit - the lower speed had been set for road workers protection. #Fatal5

Normanton, Derby. We actively keep an eye on disqualified drivers and target them when they are suspected of still driving. This disqualified driver was found chugging a beer at the wheel. Blows 87, limit 35. Arrested and remanded to court. #Fatal4 #DontDrinkAndDrive

Allestree. Out in a new unmarked car (spoiler: it's not got an FJ reg prefix). Spot these two quad riders who felt that as they were awake, the rest of Allestree needed to be. Revving anti-socially to startle pedestrians, swerving and wheelies. Ticket and S59 warning. #Traffic

Even after tweeting regards E Scooters. This gentleman after riding one, no lights and wrong side of the road, decided to get hands on with us grabbing hold of the Cop, when informed his scooter was being seized.. Rider reported for summons. These are not a toy.

A61 Chesterfield. A few factors contributing to this collision. Youngster with a provisional licence holder trying to impress his passengers by giving it plenty of right foot. In the rain. Witnessed by us and @DerbyshireARU. Minor injuries. Reported to court. #DriveToArrive

Derby. Rubbish driving. Provisional licence holder driver being 'supervised' by another provisional licence holder. Not insured. And to top it off refuses a breath test. Arrested. #Traffic #Seized #Fatal4
