A BMW driver was caught speeding, after overtaking an unmarked police car at 105mph.

The driver sped past police on the A35 Puddletown Bypass.

A spokesperson for Dorset Police's No Excuse road safety team said: "The driver was in a hurry to view a house.

"Would he have seen it if he was driving slower? Yes, maybe.

"Would he have arrived quicker and safer if he was driving slower? Yes.

"Would he not be waiting for a court hearing date if he was driving slower? Yes.

"Was it worth it? No."

The police also stopped a woman who was driving a Mercedes in Charlton Down with only a provisional driving licence. She told police she did it because she needed to check on her horse.
