A MALE driver was charged after not wearing a seatbelt and failing to provide a roadside drug test.

Earlier this week, the individual was stopped on Bradford Road in Shipley because he did not have his seatbelt on.

When officers asked him to partake in a roadside drug test, he refused to do one.

The man was then arrested, charged and released.

He will appear in court in March.
