Can people really be this stupid??

Police have stopped a car in Pembrokeshire that was being driven without a front tyre and missing most of a left wing.

Now, unless it was doing a runner from an accident - which i'm sure the police would have checked, this would mean that the driver would have knowingly got into that car - surely people can't be that stupid??

Looks fine to me, not seeing an issue.

Bit of t cut will take that right out

It's a Peugeot, it's normal if a few bits are missing.

That’s fine - their journey didn’t have any left turns

Over did it and took the phrase "polished out" literally ? Can easily happen if you use google translate from English to Welsh.

I drove for 2 days in my Civic thinking I had a knocking noise from a rear shock after hitting a huge crater in the road and that also why my steering was a little off due to alignment issues.

Turns out I had a flat rear tyre.

Put it this way, I didn't drive any differently to normal for those 2 days and I was flying over narrow single track roads to work. Hardly felt much different aside from the steering wheel being off center a bit. 18" wheels with 40 profile tyres for you. Ride is that bad a flat tyre is hardly a downgrade.

Could be worse, I followed a woman driving along facetiming last night. Yes, they can be that stupid!

Seems in better condition than most other Peu****s on the road

The driver only got their licence 2 months ago too. They won't be back on the road for a while.

I realised I had a flat tyre when the car struggled to get much past 25mph uphill out of work. 2 days is impressive!

It was a front tho, with a pig-iron Audi diesel over it.

Normal for Wales.

Got to get it to the tyre place to get a new tyre on it somehow.

I guess it's a £100 car, had a puncture or something.. no ***** given, just carried on driving to get home? Not the cleverest idea ever though!

Have you seen some of the maths questions on this forum?

Used to know a guy who did that, he cut his tennis balls in half though to get dat stance.
