I made my way around the M25 (J16 - J10) on Monday on my way into the office - usual bunch of nutters were present that will attempt any thing - no matter how dangerous the manoeuvre just to be the one car ahead of you - but one that really took the Idiot driver Monday award was the guy who was undertaking at 85 MPH - weaving between lanes - cutting every body up - this is usually a immature kid in a Focus or a Golf or a brainless BMW / Mercedes driver however, the car of choice today was a clapped out dark blue L registered Metro with complete suspension failure on the offside - so much so the body work was cutting into the tyres

- I am not sure that they come any more stupid than that

Sounds just like the driving here in Abu Dhabi. Here it's a mixture of local psychos in Landcruisers and migrant workers in shagged out Corollas.

Watch those old early 90's episodes of police camera action.....there's nearly always a hooligan in a Metro

Once britains most stolen car, the joyriders favourite

There's one they regularly seem to show where the yobs outrun the cops for miles, with the yob in the passanger seat holding the door open with his foot and waving a pitbull at the pursuing cops, eventually dissapearing through a park when the old bills Volvo gets stuck.
