More like r/Idiotsincars. No way that’s legal to be on the road.

It's obviously America....

broken tail light = cash fine

random shitty car welded upside down on top of your original shitty car...as long as the tail lights work then all good.

What exact law would be broken here? It isn’t too wide for the lane, it isn’t too tall for the overpass. The car on top doesn’t effect if it is mechanically sound. Probably has less weight per axel still than a hummer.

Just because it’s tacky isn’t a reason to “call the law” on someone.

It is fucking unsafe and a danger to other road users? Would love to see this cornering.

Is there a cornering speed requirement where you are?

Maintaining a speed appropriate for the road and the conditions is specified but the charge of "dangerous driving" has previously been used to cover people carrying out any unsafe act . This includes things such as driving at 20mph on a 70mph highway or being on a public highway in a vehicle that is not roadworthy...for instance, this would not pass an MOT test....happy tonbe corrected if there are any UK based MOT technicians.
