£30 is a lot to pay for a wee, especially when you're two miles from a services.

But the need overcame one lorry driver, when he pulled up on the A2 near Cobham - past Gravesend and the services - and urinated on the dual carriageway.

It comes just a day after another driver was caught defecating on a motorway.

Kent Police's roads team caught the latest culprit at about 12.20pm yesterday on the London-bound stretch.

He was issued with a £30 fine, which he paid before going on his way.
