A driver who parked his van on a beach was left left red-faced after his stricken vehicle floated out to sea when the tide came in.
The motorist is believed to have driven his black commercial van down onto the sands near Bridlington Beach, East Yorks., on Monday (July 31).
But RNLI teams had to scramble a quick response craft at 6am the following day (Aug 1) after the van was seen drifting around 50ft (15m) from the shoreline.
Body-worn footage showed the driver's compartment and loading bay flooded with water - with parking tickets comically positioned on the passenger side window.
