Man fined after driving car with a car on its roof in Aberystwyth
A man has been fined and given three penalty points on his driving licence after driving a car with another car strapped to its roof.
Glyndwr Wyn Richards, from Llanfarian in Ceredigion, was convicted of using a motor vehicle in a condition likely to cause injury at Aberystwyth Magistrates' Court on Wednesday.
Richards, 51, was seen driving the car through Aberystwyth to a scrap yard on the Glan yr Afon Industrial Estate in March.
He was fined £80 and told to pay a victim surcharge of £30 and costs of £85 after pleading guilty to the offence.

How the hell did he get it up there? Why not just hire a trailer or have it collected?
Some real Einstein's out there.
