Footy star Adam Reynolds gets caught up in road rage incident with his daughter over an issue Aussie parents will sympathise with
Veteran halfback Adam Reynolds found himself in the middle of a rather heated verbal confrontation in Brisbane over the weekend while giving his eldest daughter a driving lesson. The incident kicked off after Reynolds' daughter got beeped and abused by a couple of frustrated motorists for driving too slowly. Then one rude driver pushed the footy star too far. 'So we're driving home, and L plates are slow, we all know that. They're not driving fast, they're inexperienced,' Reynolds told Triple M's Rush Hour. '...and she gets beeped from behind and a bloke pulls up besides her, puts his hands out wondering what's going on. 'So I told my daughter to politely to pull up right next to him and he proceeded to put the window down. 'So I told her to put the window down, and there was some verbal exchanges.' The Broncos star said the other driver didn't recognise him as the two men argued. 'I said, "listen mate, she's on her L's you can see that, we've got them all over the car. What's your problem?"' Reynolds said. 'And he said "hurry up", and I said "she's a learner mate, what do you expect? Have some respect". 'That was the polite version. And his window went up very quickly and he sped off after that.' When pressed if things could have escalated to violence, the footy star said there was a chance. 'If he got out of the car, I was getting out of the car... I've got my daughter there.' Despite some unfriendly drivers, Reynolds has spoken about how much he loves the lifestyle in Brisbane following his move from the Rabbitohs after losing the 2021 Grand Final. 'The club and city have welcomed me and my family with open arms, family means everything to me and this is home,' he said. 'We are really building something special here and I want to be a part of that moving forward. 'To be able to finish my career at the club which has given me so much over the past few seasons means a lot to me.'

Police seize learner driver's car twice in one day
A learner driver in Nottingham had his car seized twice in one day after he was caught driving without L Plates or supervision, police said. A 38-year-old was pulled over at 08:00 BST on Friday, 9 May for a document check. Nottinghamshire Police officers seized his car on the spot after he presented his provisional license and issued him with a traffic offence report. However, the force said he was spotted behind the wheel a few hours later, at 13:20, after he collected his car from a recovery yard in Sneinton. Officers issued a second traffic offence report and took his keys again. "I've seen a few unusual things in my time as a police officer, but this was certainly a first," said PC Dan Bird of the Radford Road response team. "You can get fined up to £1,000 and receive six penalty points on your provisional license for driving without the correct supervision. "Similarly, you can receive up to six penalty points for not displaying L plates. "If the learner driver fails to do this, we will not hesitate to take the appropriate action."
