Tyred Out

croatiantimes.com

Astonished traffic cops nicked a British trucker in Germany when they spotted his tyres were more than 22 years old.

The totally bald tyres were clearly marked 'Made in German Democratic Republic', which collapsed with the fall of Communism in 1990.

"These are real museum pieces. The tyres were older than he was," said a police spokesman in Mettmann.

Local police have been cracking down on shoddy British tarmac gangs working in the area who are said to have left behind scores of angry customers.

"We found 38 faults on this truck. Maybe if he sells the tyres to a collector on eBay he can afford pay the fine," said one officer.
