BMW Drivers, or Just a Coincidence?

[John]

It says it on the Internet so it must be true.

BMW drivers have been voted the rudest on the road

 

[bpsorrel]

Hope it's not at the lowest common denominator.........

Of course not!!! I used to be a Lexus owner don't you know! LOL! Seriously, the worst driving I seem to see around is Audi/VW drivers.....which oddly enough seems the same in Russia too. Although MB ML and GL drivers take some believing over there!

The Road Traffic Act of 1988 makes it illegal to drive “without reasonable consideration for other persons”, including driving through puddles causing pedestrians to be “splashed”. Anyone convicted can be fined up to £5000.

happened near cambridge recently

'Christmas rain to blame' for mum's puddle splash horror

Sloppy, sensationalist journalism to describe it as a "horror", though; what would they have said if the car had hit and killed her?

I didn’t even read the post, but I assume it’s that OP spotted an idiot driving like an idiot , the vehicle this idiot was driving happened to be a BMW...

No, it’s not the BMW which has caused this person to drive like an idiot, they will drive ANY car like an idiot

As above, its not the car its the driver.

I would say there is some truth in it.

BMW is still considered to be a bit of a 'drivers car' and rightly so I suppose, it is pretty dynamic for an everyday white goods vehicle.
Because of this rep as a drivers car you do get a lot of youngsters buying them as their first 'proper' car, and let's be honest, youngsters can tend to be complete dicks.

So the combination of a young **** in a car that tends to be bought by those who care about cars will no doubt get some of the things you see associated with BMWs, however, it seems to be that sort of thing with Audi and VW more so round here nowadays.

Agreed. Audis seem to attract the real nuggets these days.

I'm offended!

 

[CaptainChaos]

Apologies!

 

[clk320x]

In my experience it’s the Vauxhall Zafiras

All Audi drivers are good people.

Most BMW drivers are bad people. Especially those that drive 335d series saloons & 535d series tourers.

Luckily I drive a Golf or a Volvo, I'm a nice guy (now)!! Lol

There may be more recent figures but if you go by insurance claim figures?? luxury vehicles [ with the exceptionof KIA?] have higher claim rates. It's official - drivers of luxury cars cause more accidents, insurers say

The askMID site has some useful figures also on the geographical distriibution of uninsured cars
Uninsured Hotspots

The “BMW Driver” thing has snowballed since the internet got hold of it. Seems other marque owners love to take to message boards and smell their own farts on how perfect they are.

Anyway must dash, I have a children’s orphanage to burn down, then off to my national front meeting.

I wouldn't joke about these things on a public forum....you never know who might be watching! Not everyone might take it as the joke it clearly is.

No offence meant!

To be fair, if you still had your CLS you’d be joining in!
