This car was stopped on its way to pick daffodils in a West Cornwall field - because it had nine people in it.

Devon and Cornwall Roads Policing Team saw the car and pulled it over when officers saw how many people were in it.

The occupants were daffodil pickers on their way to work yesterday morning (Thursday, February 24).

The police shared the photo of the car on social media, with a particularly terse message focussed on the importance of seatbelts.

They wrote: "It might be full swing in West Cornwall for flower picking but nine pickers in this car is way too many. Clunk click, every trip. Foreign driver dealt with."

The law states that passengers must wear a seat belt if one is fitted in the seat they're using and that only one person is allowed in each seat fitted with a seat belt.

People that don't wear a seatbelt who do not have an exemption can be fined up to £500.
