A provisional driving licence holder and his friend have received six points on their licences after police caught the provisional holder driving a car near Chesterfield.

Officers caught the pair near Barlborough last night (June 13) when the "car enthusiast" licence holder let his uninsured, provisional licence-holding friend drive his "pride and joy".

Officers seized the car and issued both drivers with six points and a £300 fine.
