A spokesman for West Yorkshire Police said: "Ashworth Rd, Dewsbury - Driver collided with a vehicle, then the front porch of a house - before then continuing to drive for several metres with front door attached to car.

"Driver arrested suspected unfit through drink/drugs."

Elsewhere, police were in Harehills in Leeds where they discovered a driver with bald tyres and an expired MOT. The driver had been pulled over for simply not wearing a seatbelt, before finding the litany of other defects with the car, which was instantly impounded.

Near the M62, a police officer found a couple getting changed in their car - or so they clamed. That vehicle also had an expired MOT.
