The mower was stopped in Bletchley and a Thames Valley Police spokesperson said that “unsurprisingly, the rider was very drunk. He has been arrested for driving whilst unfit through drink and remains in police custody.”
The spokesperson added: “In #MiltonKeynes we see weird and wonderful sights every day, but even then we are shocked by what we find sometimes.”
