Bryan pulled over by cops

Bryan pulled over by cops

Bryan was quizzed by cops after failing to pull over after speeding in his Ferrari. He was driving back to his hotel in Belfast after a gig when he was clocked breaking the limit and running a red light in his bright yellow Ferrari Spider Modena 360.

But despite police chasing him with their blue lights flashing, Bryan — who was at the wheel of his £190,000 motor — failed to stop.He only came to a standstill when he got back to the five-star Culloden Hotel where the band were staying during the Northern Ireland leg of their World Tour.

After going up to his room, Bryan was ordered back down to reception where he received a ticking off from officers. He escaped with an official warning, claiming he had not seen the police trying to pull him over.

A source close to the singer said: “All of the lads like to drive themselves home whenever they can. Bryan was with one of his minders in the Ferrari and decided to see what the car could do. At some point he raced past a police car and through a red light. The cops tried to pull him over but he didn’t see them. He just didn’t know they were trying to pull him over. He got the fright of his life when he was told the police were waiting for him in reception. They gave him a right telling off and he apologised.”

A spokesman for the Police Service of Northern Ireland confirmed: “We issued advice and a warning to a motorist at 11pm on Tuesday in Belfast’s Holywood area.”

A Westlife spokesman said: “There are thousands of screaming fans outside every venue they play. In the interests of safety, the lads try to make as quick a getaway as possible. The police understood the situation and let Bryan off with a warning. They told him to drive more carefully in the future.

He was very apologetic.”Bryan isn’t the only member of Westlife with a Ferrari. Nicky owns a red Ferrari 575 while Shane has an identical black model. All are thinking of selling the racers because they seldom get a chance to drive them.

Westlife performed the last of eight gigs at Belfast’s Odyssey Arena last night. The band move on to Dublin later this week before performing in Newcastle, Glasgow and Sheffield next month.
