Police stopped the driver in North Yorkshire, suspecting the car had two bald tyres, however, upon closer inspection officers realised there was a fully grown sheep in the boot of the vehicle.

When questioned about the fully grown sheep in his boot, the driver simply explained he had taken it to McDonald’s for a meal.
A police spokeswoman The Telegraph: “He told the officer, ‘some people take their dogs in their cars, I take my sheep’. He [the motorist] just wanted to go for a drive-through at McDonalds.”
