[Closed] More 4x4 f*+ckwits

shouldn't the police be out catching criminals

bloody hell, it's a bit of a laugh in the snow

Well they could have chosen somewhere away from the busybodies but in spirit, +1 to TC's post.

We used to get out to the fire roads round Aberdeen, tie a log to the back of my mate's Passat and get about four of us towed along at 40 mph. It's OK though, we all had leather jackets so we didn't get injured...

we used to hold on the back of the milkfloat as it went down our road. back in the days when a bit of snow didnt stop everything

Looks like fun.

There was a clip on the BBC the other day of someone pulling a snowboarder along behind his Audi estate.

So cool.

When I was younger, back in '85 I used to zip around the streets of on my skateboard- walkman on; bit of Huey Lewis, holding onto the backs of passing traffic- a great way of getting to school on time when your running late.

Got no objection to people doing things like that - I'd happily take a tow across fields on a snowboard or skis. Was it really the right place to be doing it (round a corner almost hitting a parked car - or did they actually hit it?)

one of the men is hurled out of his sledge as he desperately tries to stop himself being slammed against two parked cars.

Looks like one journalist is desperately trying to talk up a story on a very quiet local news day.

If you haven't partaken in a spot of landy-sledging or towboarding you haven't lived.

Probably not a great idea to do it in a residential area, purely because some bellend will report you. It's not like he was going fast enough to hurt anyone other than maybe the consenting adults being towed.

Lets face it. You *might* hurt yourself in the above stunt but you WILL hurt yourself as soon as you step onto the sheet ice pavement.

read the comments below the story for more giggles 🙂

one of them seems to be rally grasping at straws:

This idiot has got to be breaking some law or other. He must be taken to court. The evidence is there for everyone to see. The man is an idiot

so...you think he's an idiot so now you're desperate to find some law or other that he's breaking just to get him into court? Idiocy is not a crime, rather than just admitting that it probably is a bit dangerous but everyone was a willing participant and it's no more dangerous than sledging down a hill*

*in fact probably safer, if the towing got out of control they would slide to a halt a lot quicker on a flat housing estate than with that most cruel of mistresses found on slopes - gravity

One week ago today 🙂 ........ not on a road though.

Im sure its fun, but you need to be doing that short of sh!t away from other people. I wouldnt be too impressed if kept getting numpties slamming into the side of my car repeatedly.
Large EMPTY supermarket carparks are ideal for this sort of thing, not residential streets with lots of parked cars to crash into.
But he's a good driver, so thats ok.

Last week a buddy got towed around on his snowboard by a mate of his with a quad bike. PCSOs spotted them and followed the quad bike home and charged him.

In the good old days, that would probably have just merited a good ticking off followed by [b][i]don't[/i][/b] do it again!

I'm all for this kind of that kind of thing - natural selection hard at work.

Im sure its fun, but you need to be doing that short of sh!t away from other people.

Nope, I'm with you - would love to be doing it, but would be a long way from other people and their cars when trying it.
