The car was stopped by the Staffordshire Police Roads Policing Unit on Longford Island just outside Cannock on Tuesday evening.

Officers checked the driver's documents and found the counterfeit insurance document, so arrested the driver of the car and seized the car.

A spokesman for Staffordshire Police Roads Policing Unit said: "A vehicle was stopped last night in the Cannock Police area and the owner attempted to deceive officers with a counterfeit insurance document.

"No dice, I’m afraid, and off to court, whilst the car came with us."
