Somebody has reported the Queen to the police after she reportedly failed to wear her seatbelt while driving to the State Opening of Parliament.
The Mirror reports West Yorkshire Police confirmed on Twitter that they had received a complaint from a member of the public.
The Queen travelled to Westminster earlier this week alongside Prince Charles to deliver the Queen's Speech.
Charles accompanied Her Majesty after Prince Philip was admitted to hospital as a "precaution", it was confirmed.
The law regarding seatbelts says: "You must wear a seatbelt if one is fitted in the seat you are using."
Those found flouting the law can be fined £500 for not wearing a seatbelt.
However, criminal proceedings cannot be taken against the Queen in UK law and a spokesman said it would not comment on the complaint.
Tom Donohoe, of West Yorkshire Police, said: "I cannot stress enough that the 999 number is for emergencies only."

Could the Queen ever go to jail?
Experts say it would depend on the exact circumstances and the views of parliament.
When you join the law enforcement service, you make an oath "that I will well and truly serve the Queen in the office of constable".
Complicating matters further, all cases that are heard in a crown court are "the Queen versus", because the Queen is also head of the criminal justice system.
So, realistically, the monarch would be unable prosecute herself.
Prisons are also Her Majesty's prison service - and it is said prisoners are serving time "at Her Majesty's pleasure".
Considering that the police service, courts and prisons are all under the direction of the monarch, the Queen cannot be arrested, prosecuted or imprisoned unless under exceptional circumstances.

If somehow the situation did arise, and the charge was not a trivial one, then it is likely she would be forced to abdicate.
However, the rest of the royal family can be arrested for crimes, just like anyone else.

Not only did she not wear a seatbelt, the Queen also did not wear a crown owing to the fact there was not enough time for a proper rehearsal and she instead wore 'day dress' for the first time since 1974.
The monarch's choice of headgear raised eyebrows on social media on Thursday with theories her blue hat was a subtle show of support for the EU.

It was also the first time in 43 years the monarch didn't wear a crown for the state opening of parliament.
The unexpected election meant the date for the State Opening of Parliament was set for just a few days after the grand ceremony of Trooping the Colour, which marks the Queen's official birthday each year.
Both events are huge feats of organisation, with a Sovereign's Escort from the Household Cavalry Regiment, and the Queen’s route lined by hundreds of service personnel.
And them taking place so close together meant there was not enough time for sufficient rehearsal and preparation.
This morning Prince Philip has left hospital after being admitted as a 'precautionary measure' as he battled an infection.
The Duke of Edinburgh left King Edward VII Hospital in London today via a private back entrance after two nights in care.
