I found this article about a chase that a MINI started!

It's from August but thought it was too good not to share.

 

Just as I suspected, the 911 driver got caught, while no mention of the MINI driver must mean that he sped away!

Irresponsible indeed! Gotta agree with the magistrate though, the 911 should have just pulled into the slow lane and let the MINI by!

 

What the heck is a Zebra crossing??? Do they have Zebras in England?

 

The icing on the cake is that it was a Leeds United player. It would only have been better if he played for Liverpool.

A Zebra crossing is called that for the black and white stripes painted on the road to let pedestrians cross :smile:

 

"What he should have done is to pull over into the slow lane and let the Mini do what he wanted to do," Mr Cadman said.

Instead, Johnson hit very high speeds trying to accelerate away from the other driver.

Mr Cadman said: "What he has done has caused no danger to any other road user. For a short period of time he was doing a very high speed."


HA! Funny! But a little scary.

Wow that was a quick response! Thanks! I guess I'm not the only one bored at work. :smile:

hehe nope your not.

 

They must be using spell check software, only one typo noted in the article, well above standard for the Gruaniad.

 

kinda odd they only pulled him over not the mini... but good all the less
