Was walking round to a friends earlier when I saw a young guy working on his ford fiasco. He has the Arse in the air and was faffing around trying to take his severly kerbed halfords specials off. At the time I mentioned to the mrs he had shit wheels and he doesn't look like he knows what he's at. So an hour later we're walking back home and who comes driving by? Old fiasco driver, except he's weaving all over the road (I'll add there was no ice/snow). Amy says to me "I think he's drunk" I said "he's not, look at his back wheel". His bloody wheel was wobbling to fuck, and he was careening along the road, almost ploughing into oncoming and parked cars. He drove at least 500 yards, but just kept going. Words dessert me when I see something like that, I can not for the life of me fathom why he hadn't stopped and pulled over. Surely he realised his car was not supposed to be wobbling along like a flaccid cock

Anyone else seen anything so mind bendingly dumb?

A few months back i was riding me push bike and some women in peugeot 206 had a flat tyre and for the life of me i could not understand why she could not feel in through the steering of the car .

let alone the sheer noise off the flat tyre.

so i caught up with her and pulled up along side and explained to her she had a flat tyre.

Her reply was Oh thats why the cars pulling to the left .

Then she goes on to ask will it be alright to drive home on.

Some peoples dopeyness is ridiculous. How can you not notice, or ignore that? I've seen a Focus round my way with a back wheel that wobbles. I followed it out of town into national speed limit. At 60 the car was vibrating terribly, yet they carried on regardless. I overtook as i didnt want to be behind when the wheel fell off! I've seen people driving on flat tyres like that too

I spotted a Peugeot leaving a Tesco car park with a wheel bolt missing and I've seen an old Mondeo driving on a flat tyre but they were heading towards the garage very slowly.

Had an Audi A3 in at work that had been shunted up the rear. Once we'd repaired it, and fitted it back up, we came to check the rear lights to find there were no brake lights due to an in-operative brakelight switch. I'm not surprised it got hit up the rear; the poor guy following didn't even know it was stopping!

Thats ridiculous, and I'm guessng the guy who rear ended him got the blame?

Yeah, it went as a non-fault claim for the driver

Was the gimp in the Fiasco not trying to free a seized rim from the hub??

I had a fiasco van tailgating me yesterday on a dual,with the roads covered in snow

managed to move across to the inside lane once i had cleared the parked cars and as he passed i noticed the wheel was bent in half and his van jumping up n down

he had clearly twatted a kerb in the snow and decided to carry on driving like an idiot

last thing i need with bad conditions is some helmet tailgating in a dangerous vehicle

rant over lol

Saw a peugot 106 today, rear wheel wobbering all over the place, put my foot down got along side and signaled to stop, pulled him over and told him what was happening tp his back wheel. We limped the car to the petrol station just down the road, after talking to him for a while asking him did he not feel anything. His reply was yeah at about 50, I then asked him how long it had been happened 2 days! I could physically twist the rear wheel! Why did he not check?! Aparently a common problem With the 106's is the rear axle breaking

driving last night on a ungritted main road with rather thick snow and some women was up my arse i was doing below the speed limit for obvious reasons but she carried on . even after turned my head to say back off and flicked my fog lamp to make her think i was breaking, even flipped the bird as i was getting pissed off. she carried on as if nothings happend lol ..

Oh and even worse i was at weston bank which is a 15% decent and some one was up my arse going down it .

Hope some of these people slide into a curb and fuck there wheel as its damn rite stupid...

Yet the polo was like a snow plow and didnt struggle people just need to learn how to drive in abit of snow..

An oldish lady in a vw fox was driving today doing about 40mph with her front drivers side tyre flat as a pancake and she had'nt got a clue

lights and lack of them, thats all. no snow based stuff though, aint got none here.

lights and lack of them

Oh that reminds me of a right belter! I was driving home one evening a couple of weeks ago, it was pretty dark and someone going the other way passed me with two fog lights and a side light on and nothing else on the front.

i've seen a traffic cop car driving with fairly/very flat tyre.

i was on my bmx so when he stopped at traffic lights i tapped on the window, which made him jump and then told him,

irony at all?

Bumper was tied on loosely using cable ties and missing its light on the passenger side also, looked like it'd fall off at any point or make contact with the tyre.

Also saw a car in a Florida service station that looked like it'd been t-boned with the side being caved in completely, missing windows etc, a write off in other words, I assumed it had just been in an accident and was dumped there, sat down in this diner to eat only to watch some chap casually get back in the car and drive off onto the highway was surprised it could even drive in a straight line.

some daft bitch at a local college in a pushtogo (peugeot)

She kaned it over sleeping policemen with a rear flatty but it was pretty much on the steel rim , She deffo dented it as she went over to her cool friends

At which point she now has to buy a whole new wheel and not just rubber...

A few years ago i was riding along on my bike when i heard this terrible noise coming up from behind me, as it passed it was an old shape clip with the passenger side rear wheel locked up and getting dragged along at 40mph! Not surprisingly it was a female driving, how the f**k do people not notice these things? Although i would have liked to be there when it went BOOM!

I had an incident like this a year ago when I had my BMW e36. I had a blowout on the way to work, no issue here just got a new tyre, proceeded to my mates house and came to a set of traffic lights. As I went to pull off I felt the whole rear end of the car just drop. I had to drive as there was traffic behind, so I dragged it's sorry arse into the nearest petrol station where I realised the whole rear axel had fallen off the car and was resting on the exhaust, which had mounts missing anyway! Gotta say though the camber on the rear as a result of this was awesome!

Pissed that I spent £60 on a new tyre that morning

I had to drive to a petrol station with all 4 tyres deflated. I'd left my car in the pub car park over night and my 'friends' had let down all 4 tyres. Luckily it wasn't far but it made steering pretty heavy. Had to go past the police station like that too

On a slightly unrelated note, but dealing with people driving like a tool. We had a 60 plate Meriva in back end of last year that needed all the N/S front suspension, wheel, wing, front bumper headlights, sill and passenger front door repair. I looked through the job pack at the incident description to read:

"Driver was waving at a friend, when the car went out of control, and hit a wall sticking out."

Can't believe the insurers agreed to pay out on that one, as in my eyes it's driving without due care!

I've driven on a flat for 2 miles and absolutely ruined the inner wall of the tyre, there was rubber shavings everywhere inside the tyre. the tyre place refused to put it back in when I wanted the tyres changed to another set!

Big Audi Q7 parked in disabled spot (not disabled) in a town centre. You have never seen a set of more illegal tyres in your life. NO tread at all. None!! Thread bare on the outer sections of the tyre. Looked like worn out racing slicks. Disgustingly bad. Still the type of car you can imagine some idiot driving about at stupid speeds in.

Sent a local copper over to have a little look at them.

Can afford to buy a big fancy car but not maintain it. Ridiculous.

Cars with wiring issues, brake lights stuck on, or incorrect bulb fitted causing all the lights to go on or off when brakes are pressed.

Saw an Audi going along with it's reverse lights on a while ago
