As part of the day of action, traffic coppers issued two people with fines for not wearing a seatbelt, three vehicle defect notices were issued for lighting and tyre offences, and five drivers were warned for speeding.

 

 

A spokesperson for Police Scotland said: "The National Motorcycle Unit conducted a road check in Glasgow earlier today (Sunday, October 13).

"We're happy to report the majority had no issues.

"As winter approaches it is important to ensure your vehicle is in good condition, not only for your safety, but also for other road users."

Meanwhile, elsewhere in Glasgow, officers stopped a motor in the Hamiltonhill area on Saturday, October 12.

Cops say the driver of the white car 'clearly wasn't anticipating' seeing them in the area.

However, after a quick check, the driver was found to allegedly have no license.

Their vehicle was seized and they were reported to the Procurator Fiscal.
