German Police Seek Speeding British Muppet

German traffic police have been left looking like proper muppets by a British prankster. An Audi TT Audi A4 Avant with British registration plates has been repeatedly caught speeding on roads in the Bavarian city of Bayreuth.

The speed cameras in Germany are made to take photos of drivers who sit in the left side of the vehicle, so drivers of UK-style cars driver can't be easily identified.


A police source said: 'Because this is a British vehicle we can never get a decent picture. The driver has obviously worked this out because he has placed a large puppet in the passenger seat.'
