UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has accepted a fine from police for failing to wear a seatbelt while filming a social media clip in the back of a moving car.

Sunak was issued with a “fixed penalty notice” by Lancashire Constabulary after he was spotted not wearing his seatbelt in an Instagram video he filmed to promote levelling-up funding during a visit to Lancashire on Thursday.
