“Oh my god, you guys, this is the video of the night,” he said.

The red-suit-clad man said he hadn’t noticed he was speeding as the couple made their way to their daughter’s house for a holiday celebration.

Robinson let the couple off with a warning to slow down, even as Santa bantered about setting Rudolph on him.

They also snapped a picture of Santa and Robinson before the three exchanged holiday well wishes.

“The North Pole isn’t what it used to be,” Mrs Claus told Robinson as the pair set off again.

The sheriff’s department took the Christmas clip as an opportunity to urge motorists to take care over the holidays, captioning the video with an appropriately comical warning.

“Santa and Mrs Claus were spotted flying a little too fast through Fulton County. No coal was issued – just a friendly reminder that even sleighs need to slow down.”
