A DISQUALIFIED NSW driver has been charged with a string of offences after allegedly using a mobility scooter to tow his boat.

According to an article in The New Daily, Police said the man towed the vessel on October 19, along the Pacific Highway through the lakeside suburb of Belmont, south of Newcastle.

The 35-year-old now faces charges of driving whilst disqualified, using an unregistered vehicle on the road, using an uninsured vehicle on the road, and using an unregistered trailer on the road.

At the time of the incident the man told the media he had wanted to go fishing, but could not drive a car, because he had lost his licence.

The man is due to face court in January. You can read the full story HERE.
