You know the scene - on a busy shopping high street, Joe Idiot can't drive off and find a place to turn around - no, he decides to block both lanes, stopping all the traffic, and spin his 535D though 180 degrees in a single maneouvre.
Except his turning circle didn't quite clear kerb to kerb. He nearly made it - nearly .
Unfortunately, in his haste, he stuffed the nearside front hard into the high bus stop kerb.
We're not talking mounting the pavement here - we're talking the audible graunch of alloy on concrete as the wheel didn't quite clear.
He shot off, I suspect in the full knowledge he'd just made a d*ck of himself as well as a very expensive trip to the shops.
That'll teach you I thought - though I suspect it wont.
