Officers photographed the inside of the car to show the driver's obscured view

A motorist whose windscreen was iced up drove the wrong way unable to see he was on a collision course with a police car.

As the uninsured driver was being questioned, officers photographed the inside of the car to show how much his vision was obscured.

He was detained after pulling into a Peterborough petrol station, at about 01:25 GMT.

The vehicle was seized and the motorist ordered to appear in court.

He was reported for driving without due care and attention by officers, who said he was one of a number of uninsured drivers who had been pulled over.
