"This car was stopped during the early hours of Thursday in Caernarfon after it was spotted being driven with a defective rear light," police said.

"Things got progressively worse for the driver as he was only a provisional licence holder, and as he was unsupervised and had no L plates displayed, the car was seized.
"Driver reported for all offences and the car is now off the road."
