A disabled OAP has hit out after being turned away from a KFC drive-thru by staff who refused to serve him because he was on a mobility scooter.

David Irving, 71, was left dismayed after being refused food while visiting his local restaurant.

He had arrived at the fast-food chain to bag eight pieces of chicken after his wife told him they had nothing in for tea on September 4.

But due to his fear of enclosed spaces, he decided to use the drive-thru on his mobility scooter which is registered with the DVLA and is permitted to travel on the roads.

He was informed by a staff member they wouldn’t serve him because of the company's health and safety policy which forbids mobility scooters from using the lane dedicated for vehicles.
