A convoy of supercars en route to a wedding have been seized after reports of motorists driving dangerously on several motorways, police have said.

Officers were called at 18:10 BST on Sunday to reports of four cars being driven dangerously on the M4 and M5 near the M32 junction to Bristol.

The high-end vehicles, two Audi R8s, a Mercedes G63 Wagon and a Lamborghini Huracan, were pulled over on the A370 at Hewish in North Somerset, Avon and Somerset Police confirmed.

A force spokesperson added: "The motorway is not the place for a wedding convoy to become a rolling supercar showcase, putting other road users in danger."
