A car with no insurance or registered owner has been seized by police after it was left in Corsham.
Police received intelligence that the silver and black Volkswagen had been driven around the town, despite being uninsured and having no registered keeper, after it was spotted by members of the community.

“The vehicle was parked on the road and it didn't have a registered keeper or any insurance. With it being seen driving around the day before, it was recovered under section 165 of the road traffic act.”
