POLICE pulled over a recovery truck after it was spotted with a van it was carrying hanging off the back of the vehicle.
The truck had been travelling down Deane Road when officers saw its load positioned at an angle and teetering off the bed.
After stopping the driver they instructed them to resecure the van and issued them with a Traffic Offence Report, before sending them on their way.
GMP Traffic tweeted: "No guesses why our patrol stopped this recovery vehicle on Deane Road Bolton.
"Immediate prohibition issued for having a insecure load. TOR issued. Driver made to resecure vehicle before being allowed to continue."
