Cops Surprised To Discover That The Driver They Chased For 56km Had 'Legoland' Driving Licence
A man who led police on a hair raising car chase from London to Kent only had a Legoland ¡®driving licence¡¯ as ID.
A man who led the police on a car chase for over 56 km from London to Kent only had a Legoland 'driving licence.'
This 21-year-old boy who has been arrested on suspicion of multiple driving and drug-related offences got the Legoland ID when he was just two years of age.
The chase was pretty intense as police forces and a police helicopter were behind the car. However, the chase only ended when the driver's Audi A1 ran out of petrol.

The driver fled out of south-east London after Metropolitan Police tried to stop him on the A2 in Bexley, Metro reports. When officers searched the car, the only form of identification they found was the Legoland toy driving licence along with ¡®a large amount of cannabis¡¯.
Kent Police Roads took to Twitter to share images of the car, fictional ID and bag of weed, and joked: "No, the #LegoLand licence was not the reason for the drivers dangerous driving, the large amount of cannabis was.
"The driver was pursued from #Bexley to #IsleOfSheppey & arrested for a multitude of offences last week by #RPU1, @KentPoliceSwale, @MPSRTPC & @NPASLondon 28-0061 BB."

The fictional photo IDs are given to children when they pass an imitation driving test at the popular theme park in Windsor, Berkshire. The ¡®test¡¯ sees children cruise around Lego City in a brick-built electric car after watching a rigorous safety video.
