Police in South Australia arrested a man who was found driving a car with no steering wheel and using a pair of vise grips to steer.
At about 8:25 a.m. Monday, police saw the driver of a white Holden sedan driving dangerously on two flat tires in the North Eastern suburbs, police say. When cops stopped the car, they found that no steering wheel was attached and the driver was using a pair of vise grips to guide and turn the car.
The car was unregistered and uninsured and was the subject of a defect notice not to be driven.
Further investigation revealed the car had been involved in a non-fatal hit and run minutes earlier.
The driver, 38, was found to be driving while disqualified and tested positive for methylamphetamine and cannabis, police said.
He was arrested and faces seven charges, including failing to stop at the scene of a crash and driving while disqualified
