This section (Pt VIII):
Highways Act 1980

"Elderly"?Some things never die. An elderly eastern German man still believes he is East German. His car, parked in Chemnitz (formerly Karl Marx Stadt) had DDR on his number plate after the region code and had no official seal. When approached by the Police, he produced his East German passport. After seizing his motor vehicle and passport, the police found out that he had no licence for that car or insurance. Investigations are pending.
