Queen Elizabeth II has been reported to police for failing to wear her seatbelt as she travelled to the state opening of the UK Parliament on Thursday.

West Yorkshire Police said on Twitter it had received a call to the 999 emergency line reporting the royal wrongdoing.      

Under UK law, it's compulsory to wear a seatbelt if there's one fitted, but the law also says it's also not possible to launch criminal or civil proceedings against the Queen.

The Queen's press office refused to comment to several UK media outlets, but a statement on the British Monarchy website says:

"The Queen is careful to ensure that all her activities in her personal capacity are carried out in strict accordance with the law."
