A MASERATI was seen “accelerating and wheel spinning” out of a pub car park after the driver consumed ‘two to three pints’, police said.

Officers from Dorset Police’s No Excuse team spotted the driver during a routine patrol.

A spokesperson said: “We’d then only just arrived in the area, (switching our laser on) when a 2015 Maserati was witnessed accelerating hard and wheel spinning out of a pub carpark.

“Turns out the driver had been in the pub with his sons, consumed two to three pints and then decided to show off to them."

The spokesperson added: “We are not sure exactly what he drank or what he was thinking but he passed the roadside test, therefore car left at the roadside and a fixed penalty issued.”
