    Pray you don't meet them on the road

    Whole chunks of my life come under the heading "it seemed like a good idea at the time".

    What you don't get from the video is the sound of the engine revving and the smell of the burning clutch!

    Has to be staged. Surely nobody could be quite that inept.

    Frighteningly inept.

    Hard to fathom the thought processes going on there.
    So clever my foot fell off.

    Mmm I'm still fuming after Liz's 7 week old new Aygo was hit in her school car park by a female just trying to park next to her. Why can't they turn in correctly? Comes in at an angle, damaging the bumper and scraping all down the side. Bloody women!

    My first reaction Andy was to agree.... surely nobody could drive so badly..... but alas the truth is that there are some absolutely shockingly bad drivers out there.

    The standards are now so low and the roads so overcrowded - with nobody (Police) to enforce the law, I can only see things getting worse!

    Rant over..... sorry

    ^^^ This

    I remember years ago, my wife had a brand new car. We parked it in a city centre car park and I thought I'll park here at the end of the bay as at least it is protected by a foot path and kerb. We arrive back at the car later to find some Muppet had driven down the full length of the car. Thankfully they left details. When asked how on earth she managed to hit us as the kerb and footpath was there she said she was getting her car park ticket out of her handbag! Imagine if people had been on the footpath too! Aaaaagh!!!

    Was doing the school run yesterday and a women in a golf was trying to reverse out of a space (you could of got a bus reversed out) and she duly scrapped down the side of a van, when the van driver came out she gave him both barrels.
    Like someone else said her clutch control was shocking to say the least.

    Both clips are truly horrifying, to think that they and their ilk drive amongst us!

    Well I'm pleased you made it out of the car park in the end, probably not as pleased as the lady in the black car though.

    If I was in that dashcam car, half way through this video I would have probably gotten out of my car and offered to park hers, for my own benefit and sanity.
