Motorists convicted of attempting to pick up prostitutes could be banned from driving as part of a new crackdown on kerb crawling by Scotland's law officers. Under new guidance issued to police chiefs, kerb crawlers could have their licences seized in addition to any sentences handed out by the courts.

Kaye asks if you think kerb crawlers should lose their licences.
