A driver scored what police called an “own goal” when he pulled out right in from of them with a cumbersome, unsecured soccer net perched on top of his car.

Police said that while the dashcam clip they released was funny, “there’s a serious side.”

In the UK, they said, “driving with an insecure load is illegal and classed as dangerous. Serious cases can even lead to prison.”

The driver in this case was fined £120, and given three penalty points. Credit: Hertfordshire Constabulary via Storyful
