The Queen of England was on
Wednesday reported to West Yorkshire Police for not wearing a seatbelt as
she travelled to the State Opening of Parliament.
According to the
Authorities, they received a 999 call from someone saying the Queen was not
wearing a seat belt as she travelled with Prince Charles through London from
Buckingham Palace to Westminster.
Confirming the call in a
tweet, it was indicated that the call was not an emergency and shouldn't have
been made to 999.
"999 call received
reporting that the Queen isn't wearing a seatbelt. #not999
#notevenwestyorkshire," the tweet read.
Under UK law, civil and
criminal proceedings cannot be taken against the Queen, but under the Queen and
law section of the Royal Family's website, it states: "The Queen is
careful to ensure that all her activities in her personal capacities are
carried out in strict accordance with the law."
