The flatbed truck's MOT also expired in June, it had defective lights, indicators and brakes.

CMPG tweeted saying: "This beauty was making its way along the M6 in Staffordshire.

"The load was dangerously insecure and unbalanced, it had an MOT that expired back in June, defective lights and indicators and defective brakes.

"Thanks to team work with #DVSA the vehicle has been prohibited."
