We've all been caught with the odd lolly wrapper or empty McDonalds bag floating around in the back seat of our car, but one UK driver's car was so messy he actually got fined for it.

Police in the Thames Valley revealed they pulled a driver over for an unrelated matter just to discover how absolutely filthy the interior of his car was.

Packed with Maccas bags, empty drinks, takeout containers and spilled food, the photos police shared of the car are enough to turn your stomach.

Sorry, but that's just nasty. (Twitter)

Posting the picture to Twitter along with the caption "A tidy cab = a tidy mind," police revealed the driver was not only fined for his insanely messy car, he also lost demerit points.

"This was so bad it was dangerous, rubbish under floor pedals," the cops wrote.

"Points on licence and fine. Driver was arrested for an unconnected matter."

Frankly, we wouldn't be surprised if the police had arrested him for the crime scene in his car anyway.

With everything from salad scraps to cigarette butts wedged into the driver's side footwell, it makes sense that the car would be considered dangerous. How can you slam on the brakes in an emergency if there's an empty Coke can wedged behind it?

If the mess alone wasn't scary enough, there's no telling how many nasty bugs and bacteria could be hiding in amid the array of trash.

Other Twitter users certainly weren't impressed with the filthy interior and were happy to share their thoughts on it.

"This gives me palpitations, can't stand mess and this is above that," one wrote.

"Makes my skin crawl," said another.

Another joked that he would never criticise the state of his wife's messy car again, while a third said that at least it was a sign the driver wasn't littering by throwing his trash out the window.
