why didn't the copper just beat him to death for being a retard?

I hope he goes to court and gets time for being a tool, dangerous driving and speeding.

As for BMW, they should have said this

"I would certainly like to reassure anybody driving any BMW that we see this as really nothing more than a twat with bad hair being a retard "

well if his max power mats were not the cause of this I am britney spears!

All he had to do was put it in nuetral, or kill the engine.

Or best of all grow a brain.

Funny how the brakes seemed to keep it at a steady 70 for a while too.

That's confusing as owt. It took me ages to understand BMW's naming system for their cars, then they go and release a new batch where the old naming system's gone to the pissers!
