(Bribe Island Police)
BRIBIE ISLAND, Australia – Bribie Island Police were left stunned recently when they pulled over a driver who had his door held shut with a piece of rope.
The car was one of 11 defective vehicles stopped by Bribie Island police from August 18 to August 25.
Bribie Island Police station officer-in-charge Senior Sergeant Dave Crawford-Raby said the car was pulled over in Bellara on August 18 after an officer noticed the driver’s door moving.
“In this instance the door was actually held closed by a piece of rope,” Sgt Crawford-Raby said.
“The rope went across to the other side of the car and my officers saw the door moving because it wasn’t secured properly.”
The driver, a 46-year-old man from Bellara, was fined $117 and his car pulled off the road.
