KANNUR: The Kannur city police arrested a man, who in an inebriated condition drove his car on a railway track thinking it as a road. Jayaprakash, a native of Ancharakandi, drove his car for 15 meters along the track near the Thazhe Chovva railway gate.

The car got stuck on the tracks and turned off. The police arrived and removed the car from the track after the gate keeper informed them about the incident.

A case has been filed against Jayaprakash under the railway act and for drunken driving. Jayaprakash was later released on bail but his car was not released. The police will produce the vehicle in the court.
