A TEENAGE driver who performed a handbrake turn in a car park near some children playing has been issued with a warning for irresponsible driving by police.

The 17-year-old male was given the section 59 warning earlier this month after he was seen doing the hand brake turn in Mill Lane, Bradwell, near Great Yarmouth.

Under the warning if the driver is caught driving irresponsibly in the next 12 months his car could be crushed.
