"This is the actual sticker from the back of his car.

"No we don't want a race, idiot, but if you try and get away we will catch you."

Sean Wallace-docherty commented on the photograph, saying: "Classic, a race with the RPU - I know who my monies on lol"

Barbara Hughes said: "Yes, definitely an idiot," while Phil Burton had a different view, adding: "No sense of humour."
