THIS motorist travelling through Powys this week somehow thought this load of hay bails was securely fastened, but got a rude awakening when they were immediately sanctioned by police.

Dyfed Powys Police’s Roads Policing Unit pulled the driver over on Tuesday near Crickhowell as part of a targeted effort monitoring drivers on the A40 in the south of Powys.
