Santa Claus’ Christmas Eve dash hit a short speed bump in Ohio, US, after he was pulled over by local police for speeding.
The Fulton County sheriff couldn’t help but laugh when he approached the vehicle and found the driver dressed as Santa, and his co-passenger as Mrs Claus.
The festive encounter got even funnier when Santa told the officer he had a concealed weapon in the car — explaining it was only to “protect Rudolph”.
While it was all laughs in the US, Australian drivers are reminded the holiday period often brings double demerits. Find out your holiday road rules here: https://bit.ly/3LaBqNo
