An unsecured load caused issues for Auckland commuters after a sofa fell off the back of a vehicle.
A video posted on social media by the police warned against driving before tying down whatever you're transporting.
In the clip cars are backed up along the Northern Motorway's on-ramp near Esmonde Rd with a grey sofa and its cushions lying scattered across a lane.
A police car pulls up and the officer gets out to gather up the strewn cushions.
"Who has been a la-Z-Boy (or girl)... and not secured their load properly?" reads the caption.
