Our ANPR team spotted this stolen car transiting through the city yesterday - the car was preemptively stung by the team on J1 of the M69 and following a short pursuit it was boxed by @OPUWarks and @leicspolice - the driver was arrested on suspicion of theft.

Passed your theory but aren't aware that you can't drive unsupervised, without L plates and require a supervising passenger, who's held a valid licence for three years or more. Time to revisit the books. Seized and reported. Radford NHT

Response Team officers have located this cloned vehicle which is infact a stolen car from the city. The user of the vehicle has very kindly left lots of forensic opportunities for us to develop in the coming days!
