Dubai cop car look-a-like stopped for speeding

Police have stopped and confiscated a vehicle painted like a Dubai cop car, that was being driven dangerously, UAE website Emirates 24/7 reported on Wednesday.

The vehicle was being driven by Dubai-based Indian expat, who had returned home to south India for the long Eid weekend.

The 30-year-old, who was said to be driving recklessly through the roads of the city of Kasargode, had painted his Honda to look like a Dubai police car and even installed a siren, the report added.

Pedestrians and other motorists reported him to local police for causing public nuisance, and he was later arrested.
