The photo was submitted to Warwickshire Police as part of Operation Snap - a scheme which sees members of the public encouraged to submit photo and video of poor driving in the county.

In February, officers caught several people using their phones while driving in the town.

On Murray Road they caught a man using a mobile phone on his lap to access maps as he was lost.

Two other drivers were caught on the A426 – one on the A426 The Gibbet roundabout / A5 and the second on the A426 Leicester Road.
