The driver of a ute has been given a stern talking to - and some fines to go with it - after his dodgy driving antics were caught on camera.
The video, supplied to the Otago Daily Times on Friday, showed a man climbing out of the back seat of a silver ute and into the back tray, while the ute was travelling along Frankton Rd in Queenstown.
A second man in the front passenger seat then opened his door and hung out of it, while the driver also leaned out the window and appeared to snap a photo of the man in the tray with his phone.
Sergeant Simon Matheson, of Queenstown, said police spoke to the driver of the vehicle, who had presented himself at the Invercargill Police Station.
"He was spoken to about his behaviour and the behaviour of the passengers.''
Sgt Matheson said the occupants were issued several tickets for not being restrained in a motor vehicle and riding in a dangerous position.
