A driver who was seen speeding along the streets of Bury made a surprising request after being pulled over. Greater Manchester Police says it received four reports of a bright green Lamborghini speeding through the town yesterday (October 26).
Officers eventually brought the car to a halt and carried out their routine checks. The driver was found to be driving the luxury sports car without valid insurance.
When questioned about it, the driver reportedly asked the officers if they could let him off. GMP says the man told police it was his ‘wedding day’ as he made the request.

But the officers weren’t won over by his argument. The luminous Lamborghini was seized and the driver is now facing prosecution.
In a post shared on X, a GMP Traffic spokesperson said: “Four reports of this Lamborghini speeding in Bury. When stopped, driver couldn’t prove valid insurance, but asked to be let off as its his wedding day.
“[We] had no confetti on hand, so we improvised and threw six points at the would be groom instead. Car seized.”
